Explanation of Solution

In Newman conformation, the first carbon is represented by dot whereas the back carbon is represented by circle.

Staggered and eclipsed are the two type of conformation in Newman projection.

The molecule of butane can be represented by sawhorse, Newman projection, and wedge dash representation as follows:

The molecule of butane can be viewed from C2C3 bond in CH3CH2CH2CH3

represented as follows:

Use the diffusion model from lecture that showed the likelihood of mixing occurring in a lattice model with eight lattice sites: Case Left Right A B C Permeable Barrier → and show that with 2V lattice sites on each side of the permeable barrier and a total of 2V white particles and 2V black particles, that perfect de-mixing (all one color on each side of the barrier) becomes increasingly unlikely as V increases.
