MCQ
Geometrical isomers differ in
- APosition of atoms
- BLength of carbon
- ✓Spatial arrangement of atoms
- DPosition of functional group
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Spatial arrangement of atoms
c
They have the same molecular formula and the same connectivity of atoms but differ in spatial arrangements of groups.
They have the same molecular formula and the same connectivity of atoms but differ in spatial arrangements of groups.
Geometrical isomerism is observed due to restricted rotation around the carbon-carbon double bond.
In geometrical isomerism there is no change in the position of the double bond or there is no change in the $C - C$ bond length there is only a change in the spatial arrangement of the groups across the double bond.
