Question

The correct statement regarding the comparison staggered and eclipsed conformation of ethane,

• A. The staggered conformation of ethane is more stable than eclipsed conformation, because staggered conformation has no torsional strain.
• B. The esclipsed conformation of ethane is more stable than staggered conformation, because ecilpsed conformation has no torsional strain
• C. The ecipsed conformation of ethane is more stable than staggered conformation even though the eclipsed conformation has torsional strain.
• D. The staggered conformation of ethane is low stable than eclipsed conformation, because staggered conformation has torsional strain

Answer 1

The correct option is A The staggered conformation of ethane is more stable than eclipsed conformation, because staggered conformation has no torsional strain.

The staggered conformation of ethane is more stable than eclipsed conformation, because staggered conformation has no torsional strain.
