AIIMS 2018 Chemistry Isomerism MCQ Question

In the trans form of 3-hexene, the substituents are positioned on opposite sides of the double bond, resulting in a symmetrical structure that leads to a net dipole moment of zero. Conversely, the cis form has substituents on the same side, creating an uneven distribution of charge and a net dipole moment greater than zero. The trans isomer typically has a higher melting point due to its more efficient packing in the solid state, which is not the case for the less symmetrical cis isomer. The other options are not applicable as they do not provide relevant information or alternative answers to the question posed.
