Chapter 12, Problem 12.60P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

True or false.

Ethylene contains one carbon-carbon double bond, and polyethylene contains many carbon-carbon double bonds.

Concept Introduction:

Procedures where single molecules or monomers such as hydrocarbons and amino acids bond to form polymers is known as polymerization. Below are the two types of polymers:

  • Natural polymers − These polymers consist rubber, cellulose and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
  • Manmade or artificial polymer − These polymers are found within PVC i.e. polyvinyl chloride and other plastic.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

True or false.

All c-c bond angles in both LDPE and HDPE are approximately 1200.

  • Manmade or artificial polymer − These polymers are found within PVC i.e. polyvinyl chloride and other plastic.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

True or false.

Low-density polyethylene is a highly branched polymer.

  • Natural polymers − These polymers consist rubber, cellulose and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
  • Manmade or artificial polymer − These polymers are found within PVC i.e. polyvinyl chloride and other plastic.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

True or false.

High density polyethylene consists of carbon chains with little branching.

Concept Introduction:

Procedures where single molecules or monomers such as hydrocarbons and amino acids bond to form polymers is known as polymerization. Below are the two types of polymers:

  • Manmade or artificial polymer − These polymers are found within PVC i.e. polyvinyl chloride and other plastic.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

True or false.

The density of polyethylene polymers is directly related to the degree of chain branching, the lower the density of the polymer.

Vibrational contributions to internal energy and heat capacity1) are temperature independent2) are temperature dependent
The approximation of calculating the partition function by integration instead of the summation of all the energy terms can only be done if the separation of the energy levels is much smaller than the product kT. Explain why.
Explain the meaning of: the electron partition function is equal to the degeneracy of the ground state.
