no because unlike cyclohexane which has all single bonds, benzene alterates with double and single bonds. therefore it does not want to freely form the boat and chair conformations

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.


Is cyclo hexane planar?

No, each carbon will form a three dimensional tetrahedral bonding.


Can a handicap chair lift be installed on a small fishing boat?

A chair lift is too large to be installed on a small fishing boat. You can hoever modify the boat to allow acess. I have read of a boat made that has a drop-down bow and wheelchair tie downs, so it is possible to do so.


Which form of cyclohexane is nonaromatic?

All forms/conformations existing in nature of cyclohexane are non-aromatic including boat and chair conformations.Note: Planar or "flat" cyclohexane isanti-aromaticand does not exist in nature due to high instability.

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.

What are the types of tug boat that exist?

There are a few different types of tug boats that exist. They all serve different functions. The different types include; Seagoing, Harbor, and River.


What is the difference between chair and boat conformation?

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.
