(a)
Interpretation:
Chair conformations and the position of substituents need to be identified for the given set of compounds.
Concept introduction:
Ring-flipping is a phenomenon known as ring inversion that involves rotation about the single bonds of cyclic conformers. Usually this happens in cyclohexane ring. When ring flip happens in the cyclohexane, the axially and equatorially substituted groups are inverted. The ring-flipping also happens in a fused ring system. Decalin is a fused ring system. There are two stereoisomers for decalin, namely cis-decalin and trans-decalin. If the substituent is facing away from the ring or which makes
When viewing the molecule from the top the bonds which are said to be in parallel with the viewing angle are in axial position and which are not parallel are known to be in equatorial position.
To draw and explain: chair conformation and identify the substituent position.

Generate a molecular orbital diagram but this time using a different approach that draws on your knowledge and ability to put concepts together. First use VSEPR or some other method to make sure you know the ground state structure of the molecule. Next, generate an MO diagram for BH2. Sketch the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied MOs of the BH2 fragment. These are called frontier orbitals. Now use these frontier orbitals as your basis set for producing LGO's for B2H6. Since the BH2 frontier orbitals become the LGOS, you will have to think about what is in the middle of the molecule and treat its basis as well. Do you arrive at the same qualitative MO diagram as is discussed in the book?
