Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Skeletal structure for the cis and trans isomers for 2-nonene should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Cis-trans isomers fall under geometric isomerism.
Cis isomers- two different groups are on the same side of the double bond.
Trans isomers- two different groups are on opposite sides of the double bond.
Skeletal structure is the arrangement of atoms and bonds in molecule.
(b)
Interpretation:
Skeletal structure for the cis and trans isomers for 2-methyl-3-heptane should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Alkenes are hydrocarbon molecules that consist a carbon-carbon double bond which has the general formula of
Cis-trans isomers are fall under geometric isomerism.
Cis isomers- two different groups are on the same side of the double bond.
Trans isomers- two different groups are on opposite sides of the double bond.
Skeletal structure is the arrangement of atoms and bonds in molecule.
