Dear teachers,
I have two questions concerning the following pair of sentences:
Question 1: Between the following two sentences, I feel, the first is grammatical and natural. But I cannot say why. Could someone parse the sentences and explain to me why sentence 1 is correct?
1. I shall be free tomorrow the whole day.
2. I shall be free the whole day tomorrow.
Question 2: Would it be wrong if I use simple present instead of future tense:
3. I am free tomorrow.
Tomorrow the whole day

Re: Tomorrow the whole day
Re. 1: the issue is not correct vs incorrect but natural vs. unnatural word order. The second is more natural.
Re 2: No, it would be very natural.
