Answer:
cis-1-tert-butyl-3-methylcyclohexane will have a higher percentage of the diequatorial-substituted conformer when compared with the diaxialsubstituted conformer.
Explanation:
The two compound contain or have high stability with the substituent group is at equatorial position but the tert-betyl group in cis-1-tert-butyl-3-methylcyclohexane is larger than the methyl group in trans-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane.
Thus, the equatorial position will be more favorable for the substituent group in the cis-1-tert-butyl-3-methylcyclohexane, therefore having higher percentage of the diequatorial substituted conformer compared with that of diaxial-substituted conformer.
So it’s OKAYYYYY ITS OKAYYYY
During diffusion substances move from the denser medium (meaning where there is more of the substance) to less dense medium (meaning where there is less of the substance).
