The general molecular formula
Cis-trans terminology is used for two non-similar groups attached alkenes and cycloalkanes.
If the two identical groups are attached on each side of double bond in same side, then it is cis alkenes.
If the two identical groups are attached on each side of double bond in opposite manner, then it is trans alkenes.
If the substituents attached on same sides of cycloalkane, then the compound is cis isomer.
If the substituents attached on opposite sides of cycloalkane, then the compound is trans isomer.

- Compounds A and B are isomers of the molecular formula C9H19Br. Both yield the same alkene C in an elimination reaction. Hydrogenation of C yields the product 2,3,3,4 tetramethyl pentane. What are the structures of A, B, and C?arrow_forwardCompounds X and Y both have the formula C7H14. Both X and Y react with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form 2-methylhexane. The heat of hydrogenation of X is greater than that of Y. Both X and Y react with HCI to give the same single C₂H₁5Cl compound as the major product. What is the structure of X? • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one. 7 0▾ ChemDoodleⓇ 146arrow_forwardAnswer true or false. (a) Alkenes and alkynes are nonpolar molecules. (b) The physical properties of alkenes are similar to those of alkanes of the same carbon skeletons. (c) Alkenes that are liquid at room temperature are insoluble in water and when added to water, will float on water.arrow_forward
