(a)
Interpretation:
The monomer for polyethylene needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The monomer units combined together to form
Explanation of Solution
The structure of polyethylene polymer is as follows:
From the above structure, it can be seen that the repeating units are:
Thus, the monomer for the given polymer is ethylene.
(b)
Interpretation:
The monomer for polyethylene terephthalate needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The monomer units combined together to form polymer in the polymerization reaction. There are two types: addition and condensation polymerization.
Explanation of Solution
The structure of polyethylene terephthalate polymer is as follows:
From the above structure, it can be seen that the polymer is formed using two monomers and the formation of polyethylene terephthalate is represented as follows:
Thus, the monomers for the given polymer are dimethyl terephthalate and ethylene glycol.
(c)
Interpretation:
The monomer for polytetrafluoroethylene needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The monomer units combined together to form polymer in the polymerization reaction. There are two types: addition and condensation polymerization.
Explanation of Solution
The structure of polytetrafluoroethylene polymer is as follows:
From the above structure, it can be seen that the repeating units are:
Thus, the monomer for the given polymer is tetrafluoroethylene.
