Question

Cis-trans isomers have : (1) the same molecular formula (2) the same connectivity of atoms (3) different melting and boiling points

TestHub · Accepted Answer

Cis-trans isomers have the same molecular formula and the same connectivity of atoms; they differ in spatial arrangement, which changes the molecular shape and polarity, so their physical constants such as melting and boiling points are different. All three statements are correct.

Ans. (1), (2) and (3)
