Question
Chapter 23, Problem 34QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The concept used to determine whether the given monomer is capable of undergoing addition or condensation
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

7. When asymmetric alkenes polymerize (such as chloroethene to produce PVC), the pendant group like
chlorine can be arranged in different ways. An arrangement in which the -Cl groups are arranged on
the same side of the polymer chain is called a(n) ,
a. Atactic

arrangement.
c. Syndiotactic
d. Sporadic
8. Kevlar is a type of polymer which has a great resistance to tear. Its application includes its use in making
bulletproof vests and radial tires. The two monomers used to make Kevlar are the following:
H
H
H-O-
c-0-H
H-N-
-N-H
Monomer One
Monomer Two
When these two monomers join
a. A molecule of CO2 will be eliminated and an ester linkage will form
b. Nothing will be eliminated and the two monomers will be linked through a hydrogen to hydrogen
bond
c. A water molecule will be eliminated and a peptide linkage will be formed
d. Nothing will be eliminated. The two monomers will be linked by a carbon-carbon bond.
