Chapter 24, Problem 24.4QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

$\text{π}$-electrons resonance formula of polyacetylene has to be drawn

Concept Introduction:

A chemical species of very high molecular weight is made up of low molecular weight monomers linked together is known as “polymers”.  The reaction of formation of polymer is known as polymerization.  Resonance occurs in the polymers to give them more stability.  When the double bonds present in the polymer formed conjugates, the resonance structures are obtained.

To Show: The resonance of pi electrons in polyacetylene.
