An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya

a

Only the chair form is free from angle strain.

b

Stability of different conformations of cyclohexane is:
Chair > Boat > Twist boat > Half chair.

c

Half chair has five C atoms is one plane and one C atom out of the plane. Hence, it has both eclipsing and bond angle strains and is the least stable conformer of
cyclohexane.

d

Twisting the boat to the skew boat conformation moves the 'flagpole' H atoms away from each other and reduces the eclipsing strain. Hence, the twist boat is more stable than the boat conformation.

answer is A, B.
