Is it possible to isolate pure staggered ethane or pure eclipsed ethan

1.	Is it possible to isolate pure staggered ethane or pure eclipsed ethane at room temperature? Explain .
Answer» Solution :The energy differences between staggered and eclipsed froms of ETHANE is just `12.55 "kJ mol"^(-1)` which is easily met by collisions of the molecules at ROOM TEMPERATURE. Therefore, it is not POSSIBLE to isolate either PURE staggered or pure eclipsed ethane at room temperature.
