Determine if each of the following cycloalkanes or alkenes can exist as cis–trans stereoisomers. For those that can, draw the two isomers. Label each of the isomers you drew as the cis stereoisomer or the trans stereoisomer.

(b) CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CH=CH₂

Alkanes are also referred to as saturated hydrocarbons. Explain the meaning of the term hydrocarbon. Why are alkanes called saturated hydrocarbons?

Draw skeletal structures for each of the following molecules:

(b) cis-1-chloro-3-methylcyclohexane

How many structural isomers are possible for the molecular formula C₅H₁₁F? Draw the skeletal structure and give the IUPAC name of each compound.

Using wedge-and-dash bonds, draw a cis and a trans stereoisomers for each of the following compounds:

(b) 1-bromo-2-ethylcyclopentane

Using wedge-and-dash bonds, draw both the cis and trans stereoisomers for each of the following compounds:

(b) 1,3-diethylcyclobutane
