(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The conformation of ethane which is downhill in terms of potential energy from the eclipsed confirmation should be determined.

Concept Introduction:

A diagram which is used to denote the specific conformation of a molecule is known as Newman projection. It is classified as: Staggered conformation and Eclipsed conformation.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The repulsive forces which will cause ethane in the eclipsed conformation to quickly adopt the staggered conformation should be determined.

Concept Introduction:

A diagram which is used to denote the specific conformation of a molecule is known as Newman projection. It is classified as: Staggered conformation and Eclipsed conformation.

The forces which hold the two molecules with together are known as intermolecular forces.

3. Consider the structure below and draw its most stable and least stable conformations in Newman Projections while looking down the bond indicated پر a. The lowest energy (most stable) conformation is Anti. b. The highest energy (least stable) conformation is eclipsed.
2)- Determine the total number of conformers of the tetra-substituted cyclohexane structure given below (L.e, Draw the chair conformers of A that are, 6-levels of stability from the most stable of A, the sixth most staat conformer ofA, 9-levels that is unstable from the most unstable of A, and 5-levels of insta from the most unstable of A and the conformers of A that is representative of B. Note, only a total of six structures should be written on your paper. Also, include hydrogen atoms wherever are substituents on all of your chair conformers. Note, a table listing is a requirement for this problerm Answer (Total # of Conformers of A): 6-Levels of stability from the most stable of A: The sixth most stable conformer of A: 9-Levels that is unstable from the most unstable of A 5-levels of instability from the most unstable of A 스 Conformers of A that is representative of B:
