Plz explain this paragraph... dlcrence allows em to interconvert encety of t

dlcrence allows em to interconvert ence a rapidly. The relative number of molecules in a particular Conformation at any one time de- pends on the stability of the conformation: The more stable the conformation. the greater is the fraction of molecules that will be in that conformation. Most molecules, mation than in a gauche conformation. The tendency to assume a staggered contorma- tion causes carbon chains to orient themselves in a zigzag fashion, as shown by the ball-and-stick model of decane therefore, are in stagoered conformations, and more moleCules are in an anti confor- ww wi w w ww www

    we know that staggered confirmation is most stable and eclipsed is least stable so the fraction of the molecules in the staggered form will be greater tha eclipsed formed.

    got it๐Ÿ˜Š?

    check the image

    eduncle-logo-app

    thanku so much sir

    eduncle-logo-app

    please accept the answer if you got it ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

    It is about existence of molecule in its most stable form

    eduncle-logo-app

    As you know in newmann staggered is more stable than gauche.

    eduncle-logo-app

    So when you draw staggered conformation in bond line notation you will get structure in zig-zag fashion

    eduncle-logo-app

    Please ask if you don't get anything ๐Ÿ™

    eduncle-logo-app

    Did you get this SWETA

    eduncle-logo-app

    ok sir thanku

    eduncle-logo-app

    You are welcome Sweta ๐Ÿ˜Š

    eduncle-logo-app

    Any more doubts SWETA

    eduncle-logo-app

    If you see all carbon in straight line then you can that this zig-zag conformation is staggered conformation

    eduncle-logo-app

    please respond dear ๐Ÿ™

    eduncle-logo-app

    ok mam

    eduncle-logo-app

    sry for the late reply

    eduncle-logo-app

    please mark thankyou ๐Ÿ™

    Priyanshu kumar best-answer

    Yes, shweta if one conformation stability is more then fraction of molecules to assume that conformation is more

    eduncle-logo-app

    Gauche conformation is less stable than staggered and anti so less molecules tends to assume gauche conformation

    eduncle-logo-app

    Staggered conformation is most stable....so fraction of molecules in this conformation is .more....

    eduncle-logo-app

    now got it shweta??

    eduncle-logo-app

    yes sir thanku

    eduncle-logo-app

    always welcome shweta๐Ÿ˜Š
