Unlike other types of isomerism, conformational isomers, or conformers, can interconvert without breaking bonds. For example, in ethane, the rotation around the C-C bond gives rise to staggered and eclipsed conformations. The staggered conformation is more stable due to minimal electron repulsion, while the eclipsed form is higher in energy. This type of isomerism is vital in understanding the three-dimensional behavior of molecules in space\n
