what is geometric isomeriam ? Give the conditions
for a molecule to exhibit cit trans isomerism
Answers
Answer:
Cis–trans isomerism, also known as geometric isomerism or configurational isomerism, is a term used in organic chemistry. ... In the context of chemistry, cis indicates that the functional groups are on the same side of the carbon chain while trans conveys that functional groups are on opposing sides of the carbon chain.

Geometric isomers are two or more coordination compounds which contain the same number and types of atoms, and bonds (i.e., the connectivity between atoms is the same), but which have different spatial arrangements of the atoms. ... The isomer in which like ligands are adjacent to one another is called the cis isomer.
CONDITIONS FOR A MOLECULE TO EXHIBIT CIS TRANS ISOMERISM :
cis/trans isomerism requires a double bond for restricted rotation about the bond, two different groups on each carbon of the double bond and at least one of the groups on each carbon of the double bond are the same.
