Textbook Question

Chapter 5, Problem 58P

Given that the free energy of the twist-boat conformer of cyclohexane is 5.3kcal/mol greater than that of the chair conformer, calculate the percentage of twist-boat conformers present in a sample of cyclohexane at 25°C. Does your answer agree with the statement made in Section 3.13 about the relative number of molecules in these two conformations?
