Newman Projection Series: Video 1
This video explains conformational isomers and how to visualize and draw Newman Projections
Also discussed are staggered and eclipsed conformations, along with a potential energy diagram for the conformational isomers of ethane from 0 – 360 degrees

gauche in french= left
Awesome teaching skill mam . It helped a lot to me.
Hello, a part of the video im confused on is the defintion of a gauche. When determining something is a gauche does it have to be a substituent and at 60 degree angles of each other? if so, does that mean hydrogen to hydrogen wouldnt be a gauche simply because its not a substituent? Or would the only criteria that matter be the 60 degree angle? I hope that question made sense!
Your videos are really helpful !
Thank you, Carmen!
You reminded me of my favorite teacher. Thanks a lot
Thanks Deepshikha
You reminded me my favorite teacher. Thanks a lot
Awesome! You’re welcome!
its awesome & really helpful
Thanks Shreya
You are awesome just discovered yor videos am preparing for MCAT you make everything easy. Straight and to the point
Glad to help Maureen
Lot of thanksss
You’re welcome Sayem
Amazing! Thank you!
You’re welcome
FINALLY ! Newman projection wasn’t as hard as i thought, thanks!
glad to help
why eclipsed form has higher energy than staggered form?
See video 2
thank you
You’re welcome
so incredibly helpful and easy to understand! thank you for the awesome work!
Thank you Angelina
I have some questions?
When one methyl group is behind another methyl group then why energy increases ?
What is the energy that we r talking about?
Please answer.
This video was amazinggggggggggggggg. thank u for helping students by allowing them to see such videos.
If the methyl group eclipses the other think of this as being in the other groups ‘personal space’. When the groups are too close the molecule will try to bend out of the way giving each group more ‘space’ thus decreasing its stability and increasing the energy of the molecule overall
Bad it does not start with basics
I don’t understand. What type of basics are you looking for?
Can You Please leave a video on how to draw the right fischer projection for a molecule
And also on how to convert wedge dash to fischer
I have a video on this in my membership site https://studyhall.leah4sci.com/join
Great video very helpful!!
