Oct 2, 2017 · I understand why the $\\ce{CCC}$ bond angles in cyclobutane and cyclopropane are less than ideal $109.5^\\circ$ due to the geometric restrictions they encounter in a cyclic structure. …

For example, cyclobutane expands to cyclopentane because of reduction in angle stain and torsional strain. But in case of cyclopentane's expansion into cyclohexane, the expansion occurs mainly due to …
