Cyclohexane Chairs

from Professor Dave Explains · host Professor Dave Explains

Cyclohexane makes weird shapes! The most important is the chair conformation. Here we will learn how to draw cyclohexane chairs, how to flip them, the difference in energy between the two chair conformations, and between axial and equatorial substituents. Chairs are easy place to lose points on exams if you don't draw them just right!Watch the whole Organic Chemistry playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemGeneral Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioClassical Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2Mathematics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveMathEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.
