Question: Define Geometric Isomerism
Answer: Geometric isomerism is a type of stereoisomerism that occurs when two or more molecules have the same molecular formula and molecular structure, but the spatial arrangement of atoms within the molecule differs. This type of isomerism is most common in compounds with double bonds, but can also occur in compounds with single bonds.

Question: How Polythene is prepared
Answer: Polythene is prepared through a process called polymerization. This process involves the combination of two or more monomers (small molecules) to create a larger molecule. The monomers used to create polythene are typically ethylene, which is derived from natural gas or petroleum and can be combined through a variety of different methods. The result is a plastic that is lightweight, yet strong and durable.

Question: Why detergents are preferred over soaps?
Answer: Detergents are preferred over soaps because they are more effective in removing dirt, grease, and other stains. Detergents are also more effective at low temperatures, while soaps are less effective. Detergents are also less prone to forming scum on fabric or surfaces, and they often contain fewer harsh chemicals than soaps.
