Alkanes and Cycloalkanes

Alkanes are saturated organic compounds which are made up of C and H atoms. Alkanes have the general formula of CnH2n+2. Alkane contains sp3 hybridized carbon atoms with four sigmas (σ) bonds & every hydrogen atom is connected with one of the carbon atoms. The size of the alkane could be determined by the number of carbon atoms located in it.

Is the ring planar or puckered? 1. (a) 55 (b) The cyclohexane ring can be arranged in many forms. The two major forms are commonly called the chair conformation and the boat conformation. For instance in the chair conformation; consider the two hydrogen atoms at each carbon. One C-H bond is roughly in the mean plane of the molecule and one C-H bond is roughly perpendicular to that plane. These two positions are referred to, respectively, as equatorial and axial, as shown below. axial bond H equatorial bond Hequatorial H axial H wallon (i) Arrange the model in the chair form.
