Cycloalkene

A cycloalkene or cycloolefin is a type of alkene hydrocarbon which contains a closed ring of carbon atoms, but has no aromatic character. Some cycloalkenes, such as cyclobutene and cyclopentene, can be used as monomers to produce polymer chains. Due to geometrical considerations, smaller cycloalkenes are almost always the cis isomers, and the term cis tends to be omitted from the names. In larger rings (from around 8 atoms), cistrans isomerism of the double bond may occur.

gollark: sin ε = ε, as they say.
gollark: No, it's ε helpful for arbitrary small ε.
gollark: Theoretically you could maybe detect the oscillator things in radio receivers if they had a close frequency to your number station, but they are generally designed to *not* leak signals.
gollark: The UK has "TV detector vans", but they have not actually been able to detect TVs listening to things since ye olden CRT ages.
