The cis and trans geometric isomers of a compound have different chemical and physical properties. Draw the structure of the geo
metric isomer of 2-pentene that has the lower melting point.
1 answer:
<u>Answer:</u> The structure of the geometrical isomers are attached below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Cis- and Trans- isomers are the geometrical isomers which have same chemical formula but different structural formula
According to CIP rule, the groups on the doubly bonded carbon atoms are given priorities based on the the atomic masses of first connected atom.
If the highest priority groups are on the same side, it is known as cis-form and if the highest priority groups are on opposite side, it is known as trans-form.
We are given a chemical compound, which is 2-pentene.
In this the highest priority groups are methyl and ethyl groups.
When the groups are on the same side, it forms cis-form and when the groups are on the opposite side, it forms trans-form
The structure of the geometrical isomers are attached below.

Answer : The amount of carbon dioxide produced is, 197.12 grams.
Explanation : Given,
Moles of ethanol = 2.24 mole
Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mole
The balanced chemical reaction will be,
First we have to calculate the moles carbon dioxide.
From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that
As, 1 mole of ethanol react to give 2 moles of carbon dioxide
So, 2.24 mole of ethanol react to give moles of carbon dioxide
Now we have to calculate the mass of carbon dioxide.
Therefore, the amount of carbon dioxide produced is 197.12 grams.
