Cis–trans isomerism quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Cis–trans isomerism card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
The ______ "cis" and "trans" are from Latin: "this side of" and "the other side of", respectively.
Answer
prefixes. The prefixes "cis" and "trans" are from Latin: "this side of" and "the other side of", respectively. From the Cis–trans isomerism article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer

In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The prefixes "cis" and "trans" are from Latin: "this side of" and "the other side of", respectively.
- In the context of chemistry, cis indicates that the functional groups are on the same side of some plane, while trans conveys that they are on opposing sides.
- Cis–trans isomers are stereoisomers, that is, pairs of molecules which have the same formula but whose functional groups are in different orientations in three-dimensional space.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cis–trans isomerism article was read about 56,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 62 and blocks with 47: each hit it takes is cut by 19 %.
How to get Cis–trans isomerism
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
