E>raw a qualitative potential-energy diagram for rotation about the C3-C4 bond in 2-methylpentane. Show Newman projections for all conformations located at the maximum and minimum points on your graph. Describe similarities and differences with other molecules discussed in this section. 

In conclusion it may be stated that there is now abundant experimental evidence to justify the assertion that the potential energy diagram for sterically stabilized systems is qualitatively different from that for electrostatically stabilized systems. The primary maximum that is so important in determining whether or not stability is observed in electrostatically stabilized systems appears to be absent for many sterically stabilized dispersions. 

Qualitative features of reaction mechanisms are often described in the context of transition state theory and illustrated with potential energy diagrams. The potential energy diagram for a hypothetical one-step bimolecular reaction and for a two-step reaction are shown in Fig. 4.1. The bottom diagram depicts a two-step...
