In a cyclic structure such as cyclohexene, when bromine water is added the double bond "breaks" into a single bond, with the bromine bonding to the newly single bonded carbons. Is there a way to determine how the bromine atoms will be positioned? (example: they can act similarily to trans- or cis- isomers in carbon-carbon double bonds). (I think I'm giving my chemistry teacher harder questions than she's giving me)
