The most stable conformation of
trans-1-tert-butyl-2-methylcyclohexane is the one in which both the
tert-butyl group and the methyl group are located near the equatorial position.
Trans conformation are usually stable at the equatorial position to avoid the
bulkyl group ( the tert-butyl group and methyl group) be together to reduce the
so called Steric hindrance.
<span>Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume
of the solution while molality is expressed as the number of moles solute per
mass of solution. We calculate as follows:</span>
5.74 mol / kg (1.238 kg/L) = 7.10612 mol / L or 7.11 M
