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.
