Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:The structure of a polymer formed if 2,3-butanediol is substituted for ethylene glycol in the reaction with terephthalic acid should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Polymerization is the process of the formation of large macromolecules from one or more monomers. There are two types of polymerization reactions:

  1. Addition polymerization, in which the monomer undergoing polymerization does not lose any atoms in the formation of a polymer.
  2. Condensation polymerization, in which the monomer undergoing polymerization losesa few atoms, such as water, in the formation of a polymer.
