(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The compound neoprene is an addition polymer or a condensation polymer is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

An addition polymer is the polymer that is formed by the simple addition of the monomer without the removal of other products like water or methanol.

Condensation polymerisation is the process for the formation of polymers in which the polymers are formed by the linking of the molecule with removal of small molecules like water or methanol. It is a step-growth polymerization process. The compound formed by condensation polymerisation is condensation polymer.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The monomer used in the formation of the synthetic rubber neoprene is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Polymerisation is the process in which the small molecules that are monomer molecules link together in a chemical reaction to form large chain that are called polymer.

The repeating unit that link to form large chain polymer are called monomer.
