Chair form (of hexane) is more stable configuration because out of eight hydrogen four form the equatorial bonds and four axial bonds so its a symmetrical structure and repulsive force among the hydrogens is minimum.

Is boat or half chair form of cyclohexane more stable?
Yes, the chair confirmation of cyclohexane is more stable than the boat confirmation. The decreased stability of the of the boat conformation is caused by the nonbonding interactions generated by the close proximity of the 2 hydrogen atoms on c1 and c4 and by the eclipsing of hydrogens along the c2-c3 and c5-c6 bonds.
What is the difference structure and configuration of glucose?
The linear glucose molecule could form a pyranose ring (cyclic formation) by the reaction between the aldehyde group (on C1) and the hydroxyl group (on C5). The configuration could be either a chair form (more stable) or a boat form (less stable), as an alpha-D-glucopyranose or a beta-D-glucopyranose.
How many miles by boat from North Carolina to Bermuda?
Between 650 and 700 miles.
What side is windward side of a boat?
The windward side of the boat is the side of the boat that the wind is hitting. the other side of the boat that is sheltered from the wind is the Leeward side. In other words ... the windward side of the boat is the side that is closest to the source of the wind.
When did Masbrough boat disaster happen?
Masbrough boat disaster happened in 1841.
What is a boat conformation?
Unlike benzene, which is planar, the six carbon membered cyclo-hexane ring is NOT a flat planar molecule. Each carbon in the ring orientates in a tetrahedral manner. This leads to the ring twisting. . It can twist in two ways. The 'boat' conformation and the 'chair' conformation. Taking the four opposite carbons (No's 2,3,5&6.) in the same plane, the end carbons in positions '1' & '4' point 'up' out of the plane. This is the 'boat' conformation. Conversely, Taking the same fourcarbons No '1' points 'up' out of the plane, and number '4' points 'down' ot of the plane. This is the 'chaair' conformation.

Is cyclo hexane planar?
No, each carbon will form a three dimensional tetrahedral bonding.

Is cyclohexane flat?
No: cyclohexane can exist in a few different conformations, none of which are planar. The most stable conformation is one that looks like a chair.Other conformations include the boat and (more rarely - usually only as an intermediate) twisted boat conformations.The reason why cyclohexane in not flat is because its ring carbons are sp3 hybridised and hence they are at their lowest energy when the angle between substituents in 109.5°. In a perfectly flat hexagon the C-C angles would be 120°, thus incurring a hypothetical 11° of ring strain.Therefore, by "puckering" into the chair conformation, cyclohexane attains the structure of lowest potential energy.
