The three major types of organic reactions are addition, substitution, and elimination. You are to be able to identify a reaction as one of these types, and to predict products of these reactions. There are examples in your text, p.24-26.
Stereoisomers differ from skeletal isomers. They form because carbons cannot rotate around the double bond in an alkene. To have cis and trans stereoisomers, each carbon in a double bond must have two different groups attached to it.
Homework: p.27 #1abd, 3; p.31 #2, 3bce; small handout with stereoisomer questions
