Geometrical isomerism is a space isomerism which is noticed in the organic compounds having double bond and arises because of restricted or hindered rotation of the atoms or groups about double bond.
Geometrical isomers differ in their physical and chemical properties.
Melting point and stability of the cis isomers are lower than those of the trans isomer.
Boiling point, solubility, density, dipole moment, refractive index and heat of combustion are higher for the cis isomer than the trans isomer.

Three types of isomers?
The three main types of isomers are structural isomers, geometric isomers, and enantiomers.
Geometric isomers are molecules that .?
Geometric isomers are molecules that contain the same number and types of atoms, and bonds. They have different arrangements of the atoms.

Is Glucose and Fructose a geometric isomer?
Nope. They are structural isomers.
What are the various subgroups of structural isomers?
Structural Isomers- differ in the covalent arrangement of their atoms Geometric Isomers- differ in spatial arrangement around double bonds Enantiomers- mirror images of each other
Why Can't hydrocarbons with single bonds form geometric isomers?
because in order for it to be geometric it has to be double bond. geometric only works with alkenes
