Chapter 7, Problem 1E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The misconception of the student in determining the cis and trans isomers needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:In a molecule, if similar groups are on the same side of the plane then it is known as cis isomer and if similar groups are on the opposite sides, it is known as trans isomers.
