Chapter 26, Problem 26.23P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The three polymers from Solved Problem 26.20 and Problems 26.21 and 26.22 that are water-soluble are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

In general, polymers follow the same solubility trend as normal compounds, like-dissolves-like. If the intermolecular interactions between polymer molecules and between solvent molecules are similar, the polymer tends to be soluble.

Polymers with side groups capable of forming hydrogen bonds tend to be soluble in water. Polymers with ionic side groups are even more soluble in water because ion-dipole interactions are stronger than hydrogen bonds.
