Chapter 12, Problem 121IE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given questions based upon the polymeric structure of ethene are to be answered.

Concept introduction: Isotactic polypropylene has highest melting point and crystallinity while atactic polypropylene has lowest crystallinity and melting point. The difference is due to arrangement of substituents in the respective polymers.

(a)

To determine:

The hybridization of orbitals at each carbon atom in polyethylene and the angles between the bonds.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The structure of polypropylene in which the methyl groups lie on the same side of the plane of paper; one in which methyl groups lie on alternating sides of plane; the structure in which methyl groups are randomly distributed on the either side; the form that will have highest crystallinity and melting point; and which has the lowest crystallinity and melting point and explanation in terms of intermolecular interactions and molecular shapes.

Sort the following into the classification for a reaction that is NOT at equilibrium versus a reaction system that has reached equilibrium. Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins. View Available Hint(s) The forward and reverse reactions proceed at the same rate. Chemical equilibrium is a dynamic state. The ratio of products to reactants is not stable. Reset Help The state of chemical equilibrium will remain the same unless reactants or products escape or are introduced into the system. This will disturb the equilibrium. The concentration of products is increasing, and the concentration of reactants is decreasing. The ratio of products to reactants does not change. The rate at which products form from reactants is equal to the rate at which reactants form from products. The concentrations of reactants and products are stable and cease to change. The reaction has reached equilibrium. The rate of the forward reaction is greater than the rate of the reverse reaction. The…
