Question:There are two different substances named trans-1,2-dimethylcyclopentane. What is the relationship between them?

Cis-decalin is less stable than trans-decalin. Assume that the 1,3-diaxial interactions in cis-decalin are similar to those in axial methylcyclohexane [that is, one CH H interaction costs 3.8 kJ/mol (0.9 kcal/mol)], and calculate the magnitude of the energy difference between cis- and trans-decalin.
Draw two different chair conformations of cyclohexanol (hydroxycyclohexane),showing all hydrogen atoms. Identify each position as axial orequatorial.
Two conformations of cis-1,3-dimethylcyclobutane are shown. What is the difference between them, and which do you think is likely to be more stable?
