why has trans isomer higher melting point than cis isomer

Answer:
The "U" shape of cis isomer doesn't pack as well as the straighter shape of the trans isomer. ... packing in the cis isomers means that the intermolecular forces aren't as effective as they should be and so less energy is needed to melt the molecule - a lower melting point.
