- A statement of Assertion followed by a statement of Reason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following options.
Assertion: The Eclipsed and the Staggered conformations of Ethane continuously flip from one form to the other.
Reason: The torsional barrier between the Conformers of Ethane has a high value of about \(50 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}\) and this restricts free rotation around \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{C}\) bond.COMEDK 2024 Medium - \(\mathrm{KMnO}_4\) acts as an oxidising agent in acidic medium.
