Question
Chapter 12.3, Problem 2CP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The characteristics that make a molecule exhibit liquid crystal properties are to be selected.
Concept introduction:
The foremost requirement for a molecule to exhibit the properties of liquid crystals is its capability to align them in an ordered arrangement which, as a result, causes anisotropy.
The characteristics responsible for such an arrangement are structures with more length but less width, so that they can appear like rods.
Along with that rigidity, which can be due to pi bonds,
The rod-like shape and rigidity allow the molecules to align themselves in an ordered arrangement and hence result in anisotropy.
