Question
Chapter 23, Problem 10QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The portion of polymer Lexan chain formed from given monomers needs to be sketched.
Concept introduction:
A polymer is a long chain consists of large number of monomer units. In a polymer, the monomers are linked to each other in a continuous or repetitive manner. These monomer units are linked to each other either through the formation of peptide linkage, glycosidic linkage or by removal of any moiety such as a water molecule. Polyvinyl chloride, Bakelite and polystyrene are some of the examples of
