    Physical Properties of Alkenes

    8-1 When in the cis configuration, the methyl groups experience steric strain as they are in close proximity to each other. They avoid steric interactions when in the trans configuration as they are able to stay as far apart as possible.

    8-3 Alkyl groups are able to stabilize their neighboring carbon atoms by donating electron density, which allows for the delocalization of electron density and an increase in stability.

    b) Trisubstituted

    c) Monosubstituted

    d) Tetrasubstituted
