Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation:
The structure of the step-growth polymer expected to be obtained from the reaction given is to be shown.
Concept introduction:
In step growth
To draw:
The structure of the step-growth polymer expected to be obtained from the reaction given.
b)
Interpretation:
The structure of the step-growth polymer expected to be obtained from the reaction given is to be given.
Concept introduction:
In step growth polymers each bond is formed independently in a discrete step. In the formation of these step growth polymers, n moles of one component react with n moles of other component to form a polymer with n repeating units eliminating 2n moles of small molecules.
To draw:
The structure of the step-growth polymer expected to be obtained from the reaction given.
