3. Why did breaking the P-C single bond lead to the formation of 2 species containing a
free radical (ie. where did those 2 electrons come from)?
4. Do you think the photoinitiator 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropiophenone would require a
shorter or longer wavelength of light to create a free radical? Explain your answer
using the table provided in question #2 (be specific). The structure of 2-hydroxy-2-
methylpropiophenone is shown below.

5. Why is the PEGDA monomer soluble in water, but the polymer is not? In other
words, why do you think forming a large molecule would lead to the formation of a
solid? (Hint: think about the movement of molecules in a liquid vs solid phase).
