9. For each of the following reaction schemes, provide the major product or products, including stereoisomers. Label each scheme SN2, SN1, E2, and/or E1. In some cases multiple reactions may occur, list any that apply. If you predict that no reaction (or only a very slow reaction) will occur, write “no reaction” instead of drawing products. The solvent is listed above each arrow. O
