Question

Identify the substance that can exhibit cis-trans isomerism. If the substance exhibits isomerism, draw both isomers.

a. 2-methyl-2-pentene (both condensed and line structures)

b. 3-hexene (line structures only)

c. 2,3-dimethyl-2-hexene (condensed structures only)

Accepted Answer

2-methyl-2-pentene

Structural formula of 2-methyl-2-pentene showing cis and trans isomers.

Answer

3-hexene

Structural formula of 3-hexene illustrating its isomer.

Answer

2,3-dimethyl-2-hexene
