Step 1

The isomers which have a restricted rotation around the double bond is known as geometrical isomers.

The isomers which have different spatial arrangements are known as cis- trans isomers.

In cis isomers; the functional groups are present on the same side of double bond while in trans isomers; the functional groups are present on the opposite side of double bond.

According to CIP rule; higher atomic number take the first priority for assigning the cis trans configuration than lower atomic number.
