Question

Which of the following compounds will show geometrical isomerism?
Options
A CH2=CHCl2
B ClCH=CHBr
Correct Answer
C CH2=CHCl
D Cl2C=CBr2
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

ClCH=CHBr shows geometrical isomerism because each carbon of the double bond has a different halogen (Cl and H on one carbon, Br and H on the other). The other options have identical groups on at least one carbon.

Hint

Which compound has two different groups on each carbon of the C=C?
