The gauche effect is very sensitive to solvent effects, due to the large difference in polarity between the two conformers.For example, 2,3-dinitro-2,3-dimethylbutane, which in the solid state exists only in the gauche conformation, prefers the gauche conformer in benzene solution by a ratio of 79:21, but in carbon tetrachloride, it prefers the anti conformer by a ratio of 58:42.

The conformation which places the methyl group in the equatorial position is 3.16 kcal/mol more stable than the axial conformation. [7] The product ratio of 95:5 indicates that the more stable conformer leads to the major product.
The two have equal free energy; neither is more stable, so neither predominates compared to the other. A negative difference in free energy means that a conformer interconverts to a thermodynamically more stable conformation, thus the equilibrium constant will always be greater than 1.
The chair conformation is the most stable conformer. At 298 K (25 °C), 99.99% of all molecules in a cyclohexane solution adopt this conformation. The C–C ring of the chair conformation has the same shape as the 6-membered rings in the diamond cubic lattice. [7]: 16 This can be modeled as follows.

But unlike gasoline cars, for which there's a well-developed set of more than 100,000 fuel stations nationwide, hydrogen drivers are utterly dependent on both a reliable supply of the gas itself ...
Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG) has been manufacturing these hydrogen fuel cells for years now, and deploying them in forklifts, short-range haulers, robotics, and more recently, longer-range vehicles ...
More complex molecules, such as butane, have more than one possible staggered conformation. The anti conformation of butane is approximately 0.9 kcal mol −1 (3.8 kJ mol −1) more stable than the gauche conformation. [1] Both of these staggered conformations are much more stable than the eclipsed conformations.
