The basic building block of "fat" are fatty acids. Cis is a term used in chemistry and other sciences. Below is the definition of cis from Answers.com cis-
pref. # On this side: cisatlantic. # Having a pair of identical atoms or groups on the same side of a plane that passes through two carbon atoms linked by a double bond. Used of a geometric isomer: cis-2-butene. [Latin, from cis, on this side of.] In an effort to answer "Cis Fat", the description below is cut and pasted from Answers.com for "Unsaturated fatty acid" Hopefully this helps:-) unsaturated fatty acid A http://www.answers.com/topic/fatty-acid that contains one (monounsaturated) or more (polyunsaturated) double bonds between carbon atoms. Each double bond takes the place of one hydrogen atom. In cis fatty acids, the two hydrogen atoms adjacent to a double bond are on the same side. This imposes a kink in the molecule making cis unsaturated fatty acids less easy to pack together. Consequently, cis unsaturated fats are usually liquid (oil) at room temperature. In trans-unsaturated fatty acids, the two hydrogen atoms adjacent to a double bond are on opposite sides, enabling the atoms to pack more closely together and giving the trans unsaturated fatty acids physical properties similar to saturated fatty acids. Eating large amounts of foods with high levels of trans unsaturated fatty acids is generally regarded as more detrimental to health than eating comparable amounts of food containing cis unsaturated fatty acids.
13-cis lycopene is more stable than 7-cis and 11-cis because it has a more extended conjugated system, making it less prone to isomerization and oxidation. The increased delocalization of electrons in 13-cis lycopene results in higher stability compared to 7-cis and 11-cis isomers.
Russia has the largest oil reserves in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
A number of natural fats contain double bonds. Adding hydrogen to those bonds changes them to single bonds. That raises the temperature at which the fat will burn during the cooking process. When nature hydrogenates fat, it always produces cis fat. It never produces trans fat. Trans fat does not appear in nature. It does appear in cattle fed in feed lots. Feed lots do not appear in nature. Companies can add hydrogen to fat and produce either cis or trans fat. The technology exists to produce either. It has been around for years.
Yes, 3-octene can exhibit cis-trans isomerism. In the cis isomer, the two methyl groups are on the same side of the double bond, while in the trans isomer, they are on opposite sides.
The cis-trans isomerism tend to be very stable. Typically, trans isomers are more stable however, an exception lies in cis-trans isomers which makes them more stable than trans isomers.
There are many foods that contain CSI-fats. For monounsaturated cis-fats, the foods include: avocados, canola oil, eggs, cashews, ground beef, bacon and olives. For polyunsaturated cis-fats, they would include: flaxseed, pine nuts, salmon, smelt, walnuts and soybeans.
With organic compounds, you can have carbon atoms bonded together with single bonds, double bonds, and triple bonds. If all of the carbon bonds in a fat are single bonds, the fat is saturated. If one of the bonds is a double bond, it is mono-unsaturated. If more than one bond is unsaturated, it is polyunsaturated. Sometimes industries add hydrogen to a double bond and make it hydrogenated. They can add it in one of two ways. They can make it a trans fat or they can make it a cis fat. Nature also hydrogenates fats. Nature makes cis fats. Your body has no problem with cis fats. Nature does not make trans fats. Your body has problems with trans fats. Industries can produce cis fats but find it easier to produce trans fats. Making trans fats illegal will force them to make cis fats.
Hydrogenation is the proccess that makes unsaturated fat have characteristics of saturated fat. During the process the shape of the fat molecule changes for cis to trans form. This process increases the risk of heart disease.
13-cis lycopene is more stable than 7-cis and 11-cis because it has a more extended conjugated system, making it less prone to isomerization and oxidation. The increased delocalization of electrons in 13-cis lycopene results in higher stability compared to 7-cis and 11-cis isomers.

C8H16 does not specify the arrangement of atoms, so it is neither cis nor trans. The cis/trans notation is used to describe relative positions of substituents on a molecule, typically alkenes or cycloalkanes.
in general there are three types of fats: unsaturated (cis), saturated and trans fats. unsaturated fats refer to those with tails that contain at least one double bond. the configuration of the molecule around the double bond could be straight (trans) or bent (cis). See below. /=/ ---> trans /=\ ---> cis Conversely, saturated fats are those that have no double bonds and conform to the CnH2n+2 rule.
There are three isomers of dibenzalacetone because of the different possible arrangements of the benzene rings and the carbonyl groups on the central carbon atom. These configurations lead to geometric isomers, where the relative positions of the benzene rings and carbonyl groups differ, resulting in three distinct isomeric forms.
