Question

What are conformations? Write two conformations of ethane​

Answer 1

Answer:

The lowest energy conformation of ethane, shown in the figure above, is called the 'staggered' conformation, in which all of the C-H bonds on the front carbon are positioned at dihedral angles of 60°relative to the C-H bonds on the back carbon. ... Another 60°rotation returns the molecule to a second eclipsed conformation.
