Chair and Boat Conformers of Cyclohexane (C6H12). Note it is impossible to place all the carbons in the same plane without strai

ning the bonds. Take two opposite carbons and pull both of them up to make one conformation and then pull one of them down to make the other conformation.
a. Can you interconvert one conformer into the other without breaking any bonds?
b. Explain why these represent conformers and not isomers.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Conformation refers to the various spatial arrangements of atoms in a molecule that result from free rotation across the carbon-carbon single bond.

There are two possible conformations of cyclohexane. They are; the chair and boat conformations.

We can convert the molecule from one conformation to another by rotation of single bonds.

These conformations are not isomers. Isomers are different molecules while conformers are different spatial arrangements of the same molecule obtained by rotation across carbon-carbon single bonds. Isomers are not obtained by rotation across carbon-carbon single bonds.

Hence, the chair and boat conformers of cyclohexane are obtained by rotation across the carbon-carbon single bond hence they are conformers and not isomers.

Construct <br> an isotope has 17 protons 20 neutrons and 18 electrons
ASHA 777 [7]
Add proton + neutrons = Mass 37

Proton is same as your atomic mass= 17

If you go on the periodic table look up 17 and it will give u the letter.

A source of error is any factor that may affect the outcome of an experiment. There are countless conceivable sources of error in any experiment; you want to focus on the factors that matter most. Identify each source of error specifically and then explain how that source of error would have affected the results. Keep in mind that an "error" to a scientist does not mean "mistake"; it more closely means "uncertainty".
Many students are tempted to say "human error", but this term is vague and lazy; any decent teacher will not accept it. Instead, think about specific things that happened during the lab exercise where the end results may have been affected.
To give an example one might find in a bio lab: perhaps a water bath's temperature was not monitored very carefully and you found that an enzyme's activity was greater than you expected. In that case, you could write something like,
"The temperature of the water bath during this exercise was not monitored carefully. It is possible that it was warmer or cooler than intended, and this would have affected the enzyme activity accordingly. The fact that our enzyme activity was found to be higher than expected leads me to believe that perhaps the water bath was too warm."

Imagine that instead of balls, you were rolling positively charged ions of the same element).
Ghella [55]
The ion with a +3 charge would be deflected the most by the magnet because it has the strongest positive charge therefore it will be the one being the most repelled. and the ion that would be deflected the least would be the ion with a +1 charge because it has the least amount of charge so the magnet will still repel it but just not as much as it will repel the ion with a +3 charge.

hope that helps
