Chapter 10, Problem 59QRT

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical equation for the formation of poly(methyl methacrylate) with four monomer units of methyl methacrylate has to be predicted.

Concept Introduction:

The simpler units which combine to form polymers are known as monomers.  The process by which respective monomers combine to form polymers is known as polymerization.  Radical polymerization takes place via a free radical intermediate.  The peroxide used in this polymerization forms the free radical which acts as the initiator.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The repeating unit in poly(methyl methacrylate) has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

A polymer closely related to PET is PBT, which is made from terephthalic acid and butane-1,4-diol.(a) Propose a structure for PBT and write the condensed formula for the structure.(b) What does PBT stand for? That is, what do you expect the trivial name of PBT to be?(c) Would you expect PBT to have a higher or lower melting point than PET? Justify your answer.(d) PBT, rather than PET, is used in molding because it crystallizes faster. Explain why PBT crystallizes more quickly than PET.
In a recent year, 2.84 billion kilograms of polystyrene was produced in the United States. Polystyrene is the addition polymer formed from the styrene monomer, C6H5CHuCH2. How many styrene monomer units wereincorporated in that 2.84 billion kilograms of polymer?
Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) are chemicals formed by attaching one or more chlorine atoms to a pair of connected benzene rings.   (a) Summarise the adverse health effects associated with exposure to PCBs.         (b) With a suitable illustration, explain the action of PCBs toxicity.
