Explanation:

The lowest energy conformation of ethane, shows 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.

Answer

The infinite number of momentary arrangements of the atoms in space which result through the rotation about a single bond is called Conformation .

The two types of Conformation of ethane are as follows : -

  • Staggered
  • Eclipsed

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.
