Chapter 23, Problem 38QAP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The monomer required to produce the given polymer needs to be determined.

  Chemistry: Principles and Reactions, Chapter 23, Problem 38QAP , additional homework tip  1

Concept Introduction:

A polymer is a long chain consists of large number of monomer units. The monomers are repeated units in a polymer they are linked to each other in different orders to produce different polymers.

These monomer units are linked to each other either through the formation of peptide linkage or glycosidic linkage or by removal of any moiety such as a water molecule.

Polyvinyl chloride, bakelite, polystyrene are some of the example of polymers.
