Hydrocarbons: Isomerism & Nomenclature

The document discusses different types of hydrocarbons including alkanes, their isomers, conformations, IUPAC nomenclature, and cycloalkanes. It provides examples of branched chain alkyl groups and isomerism in cycloalkanes. Exercises are included to reinforce key concepts around naming and identifying structural isomers of various hydrocarbon derivatives.
