Answer:
Axial
Explanation:
In the most stable conformation of Cis-3-tert-Butylcyclohexanol, the tert-butyl group is at equatorial position and the alcohol group is in the axial position.
If the tert-butyl group is placed in equatorial position, repulsions are minimized. The bulkier the group, the greater the energy difference between the axial and equatorial conformers. Hence for a ring having a bulky substituent, such bulky substituent is better placed in the equatorial position.
The energy difference between the conformers of Cis-3-tert-Butylcyclohexanol is so high that the compound is almost "frozen" in a conformation where the tert-butyl groups are equatorial and the -OH groups are axial. This conformer is more stable by 24 KJ/mol.
Answer:
2.445 g
Explanation:
Step 1: Given and required data
- Energy in the form of heat required to boil the water (Q): 5525 J
- Latent heat of vaporization of water (∆H°vap): 2260 J/g
Step 2: Calculate the mass of water
We will use the following expression.
Q = ∆H°vap × m
m = Q / ∆H°vap
m = 5525 J / (2260 J/g)
m = 2.445 g
Answer:
enantiomers
Explanation:
L and D stand for levorotatory and dextrorotatory respectively. A levorotatory molecule will rotate the plane of plane polarised light left and a dextrorotatory molecule will rotate the plane of plane polarised light right. L and D molecules are non superimposable mirror image of each other. Therefore they are also known as enantiomers.
