**Chemistry Educational Content: Understanding Isomers****Question 23 of 30****Determine the relationship between the two compounds shown here.**The image shows structural representations of two chemical compounds. The compounds have different spatial arrangements of atoms around a double bond, which can be identified by examining the positions of the hydrogen atoms (H):- The left compound contains a double bond with hydrogen atoms on opposite sides.- The right compound contains a double bond with hydrogen atoms on the same side.**Answer Choices:**A) Stereoisomers B) Geometric isomers C) Constitutional isomers D) Optical isomers E) They are not related.**Analysis:**- **Stereoisomers**: This category includes compounds that have the same structural formula but differ in the spatial arrangement of atoms.- **Geometric isomers (cis/trans)**: A subtype of stereoisomers where compounds differ in the spatial arrangements around a double bond or ring structure.- **Constitutional isomers**: Compounds that have the same molecular formula but different connectivity of their atoms.- **Optical isomers (enantiomers)**: A subtype of stereoisomers where compounds differ in the arrangement of atoms such that they are non-superimposable mirror images.- **They are not related**: Indicates no specific relationship between the compounds.**Conclusion:**The given compounds are **Geometric isomers (B)**, specifically *cis-trans* isomers, due to the difference in the spatial arrangement of the hydrogen atoms around the double bond. This type of isomerism occurs when each carbon of a carbon-carbon double bond has two different substituents, leading to different physical properties and reactivity.
