Question
Chapter 9, Problem 9.46P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The cis and trans isomer of 1,2-dichloro-1,2-dibromo ethene has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
ISOMERS:
The molecules, which have the same molecular formula but different arrangement of atom, are called as isomers. There are two types of isomers,
- Structural isomers
- Stereo isomers
Stereo isomers:
Stereo isomers are the isomers that have same molecular formula but differ in spatial arrangement of atoms. Stereo isomers can be sub divided into two groups
- Optical isomers
- Geometric isomers
Optical isomers:
Optical isomers are the mirror image of a molecule and they can be rotated by plane polarized light.
Geometric isomers:
If there is restricted rotation in a molecule there arises geometric isomerism. Geometric isomers are also known as Cis- Trans isomerism.
- If the two atoms locked in same side of the molecule then it is called as cis isomers.
- If the two atoms locked in opposite side of the molecule then it is called as trans isomers.
