Given Structure to be predicted as either cis or trans isomer. Concept Introduction: Stereoisomers: A compound has same molecular formula but differ in the spatial arrangement of atoms or groups in 3D-space. Cis-isomer: In cis-configuration, the two identical substituents of the double bond are on the same side. Trans-isomer: In trans-configuration, the two identical substituents of the double bond are on the opposite side and the term is included before the name as prefix.
