| Mar 27, 2020 at 4:01 | comment | added | Aumkaar Pranav | I get this reasoning. Can you also please address this (maybe silly) question: why does a larger cycloalkane show greater total ring strain than another smaller cycloalkane having similar value of X (for example, cyclooctane and cyclopentane)? Does the quantity 'total ring strain' hold any significance? | |
