Cis-3-tert-Butylcyclohexanol has the tert-butyl group in the equatorial position and the alcohol in the ________ position.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anni [7]3 years ago

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.

A metal entrance door swings freely in the winter, but when
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

This phenomenon occurs because the door, being metal and leading to changes in temperature, undergoes proportional and morphological changes, metals face expansion and expansion in the presence of heat, called thermal expansion.

On the other hand, against the cold, thermal contraction is suffered, that is why its volume decreases, and it contracts.

Explanation:

The expansion phenomenon of the door is not linear, since it increases its volume in width and height, therefore simultaneously on the entire surface.

When an area or surface expands, it does so by increasing its dimensions in the same proportion. For example, a metal sheet increases its length and width, which means an increase in area. Area dilation differs from linear dilation in that it involves an increase in area.

The area expansion coefficient is the increase in area that a body of a certain substance experiences, with an area equal to unity, as its temperature rises one degree centigrade. This coefficient is represented by the Greek letter gamma.

Regarding shrinkage, a clear example of this is when a metal foundry or a weld shrinks, sometimes it is difficult to understand with examples like these (doors) because it is little noticeable by our eyes and the dimensional changes for our perspective. it is infima.
