(a)
Interpretation:
The major use for the Styrofoam is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
The process by which respective monomers combine to form
(b)
Interpretation:
The major use for the Acrilan is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
The process by which respective monomers combine to form polymers is known as polymerization. The polymers can be prepared by addition and condensation reactions. The polymer formed by the simple addition reactions of monomers without the generation of by-products are known as addition polymer.
(c)
Interpretation:
The major use for the Plexiglas is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
The process by which respective monomers combine to form polymers is known as polymerization. The polymers can be prepared by addition and condensation reactions. The polymer formed by the simple addition reactions of monomers without the generation of by-products are known as addition polymer.
