It is easy to imagine a cyclohexane as a flat hexagon and a lot of the time we draw it
that way. Looking at 1,3,5-triethylcyclohexane we cannot tell the stability of the
molecule from looking at the flat 2D drawing. Explain why we need to look at the 3D
configuration and what conformation (axial,equatorial) would each of the three ethyl
groups be in for the most stable configuration.
Rank the conformations of n-butane with reference to its potential energy from the most stable to the least stable.
Rank from the most stable to the least stable. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

- Write TRUE if the BOLD word/phrase makes the statement correct. Otherwise, write the correct WORD/PHRASE that will make the statement true. If there are two bold words/phrases in a number, write your answer for EACH of the bold words/phrases. 1. The anti-staggered conformation of butane, in which the methyl groups have a dihedral angle of less than 180°, has the highest energy. 2. The formation of 2-methylpropene as side product in the synthesis of tert-butyl chloride is a nucleophilic substitution reaction. 3.
