#1
Front (Question)
Define cis, trans isomerism
Back (Answer)
stereoisomers that have the same connectivity but a different arrangement of their atoms in space as a result of the presence of either a ring or a carbon-carbon double bond
#2
Front (Question)
What are stereoisomers that have the same connectivity but a different arrangement of their atoms in space as a result of the presence of either a ring or a carbon-carbon double bond?
Back (Answer)
cis, trans isomerism
#3

What are two characteristics of alkenes? (Hint: bond and electron density)
Back (Answer)
• Double bond cannot rotate * Electron density is above and below bond axis thus available to interact with other molecules
