integration number, multiplicity and adjacent hydrogen for Monomer A,
Monomer B and Polymer C.
(c) Identify the possible structural formulae for repeating unit of Polymer
C.
(d) Identify the possible structural formulae of compound X present in
aqueous and basic solutions.
(e) Discuss the differences between compound Y with aliphatic carboxylic
acid.
