Chapter 3 Question 7
How do you know if the drawing is supposed to be eclipsed or staggered? Is it based on the dihedral angle? If so, how does that work?

Re: Chapter 3 Question 7
It depends on the stability of the conformation that you are trying to draw. You always draw staggered for most stable conformations and always draw elipse for least stable.
