Problem 2: 1. Location of the double bond is one possible isomer.
These could include 1-dodecene, 2-dodecene, 3-dodecene, 4-dodecene,
5-dodecene, and 6-dodecene.
 (6.0K)  (7.0K)
(Hydrogen omitted to simplify the drawing)
2. Branched compounds are a second type of isomer.
3,4 dimethyl, 2-decene  (6.0K)
3. Geometric isomers include attached groups on the
carbons the double bond.
3,4 diethyl-3-octene (trans)  (7.0K)
3,4 diethyl-3-octene (cis)  (8.0K)>
or trans-6-dodecene and cis-6-dodecene
 (8.0K)  (8.0K)
