1.the dipole moment in cis isomer is greater as because in the trans isomers the vibrations or vectors are directed opposite to each other and hence nullified

2. make the question clear......do you have problem with R,S - notations

3. 'a' means axial and 'e' means equatorial......these notations are used mainly in cyclohexane and its derivatives.......
