Eclipsed example sentences

Out of staggered and the eclipsed conformations of ethane, staggered conformation is more stable as hydrogen atoms are farthest apart.Sawhorse projections of eclipsed and staggered conformations of ethane are depicted.One such conformation in which hydrogen atoms attached to two carbons are as closed together as possible is called eclipsed conformation and the other in which hydrogens are as far apart as possible is known as the staggered conformation.On the other hand, when the staggered form changes into the eclipsed form, the electron clouds of the carbon – hydrogen bonds come closer to each other resulting in increase in electron cloud repulsions.Of all the conformations of ethane, the staggered form has the least torsional strain and the eclipsed form, the maximum torsional strain.Eclipsed and the staggered conformations can be represented by Sawhorse and Newman projections.
