<span>A microclimate is the climate of a small area that is different from the area around it. It may be warmer or colder, wetter or drier, or more or less prone to frosts.Microclimates may be quite small – a protected courtyard next to a building, for example, that is warmer than an exposed field nearby.</span>
Correct answer - Tetrahedral, planar or flat.
Why? - When carbon forms single bonds with other atoms, the shape is tetrahedral. When two carbon atoms form a double bond, the shape is planar, or flat. Single bonds, like those found in ethane, are able to rotate.
