Stereochemistry is a very difficult topic for a distance education student to master—be sure to make full use of molecular models. You can test yourself to find out how well you understand the material presented in this unit by attempting some or all of the additional problems on pages 176-183. When you are confident that you understand the material presented in Units 3-5, please complete the first self test.
