Globally, the winter of 2014–15 was the warmest winter on record at that time, but it sure didn’t seem that way for most of the eastern United States. This region experienced record-low temperatures and extreme snowfall, especially in the northern and coastal areas. During this period of extreme cold and snow, it was not uncommon to see comments on social media disputing climate change. For example, some commenters took pictures of huge piles of snow and added comments such as, "This doesn’t look like global warming." Do these commenters have a point? Should extreme snowfall over the course of a season cast doubt on the theory of global climate change? Make a scientific argument explaining why you agree or disagree with these commenters.

For cyclohexane compounds drawn in a chair conformation:   -axial bonds are vertical  -equatorial bonds are parallel to two bonds within the ring.  thus, as i assume the chair conformation is drawn:   -the x group is in an axial position, as are the five other vertical bonds.  -three axial bonds are on the top face of the ring  -the other three axial bonds are on the bottom face  the position of the second substituent on each ring carbon is equatorial.  gauche groups must be on an adjacent carbon such as carbon 6 and carbon 2, and also gauche groups are rotated by 60 degrees relative to each other.  drawing the newman projections for c1–c2 and c1–c6 aids in visualizing the groups that are gauche to the y group on c1.  click this link and watch some academic videos that may you more understand the topic
