(a)
Interpretation:
The structures of cis- and trans-polyacetylene are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The
(b)
Interpretation:
An explanation to show that cis- and trans-polyacetylene conduct electricity is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The double bonds in the structures of cis- and trans-polyacetylene are present at alternative positions. These alternative positions of double bonds indicate that cis- and trans-polyacetylene are conjugated and thereby movement of electrons are possible.
(c)
Interpretation:
An explanation for the possibility to prepare anisotropic electrical conductivity (unusual behaviour) polyacetylene films is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Anisotropic electrical conductivity of a polymer refers to the different conductivity of a polymer in different direction. Electrical conductivity, parallel to the layer of a polymer is high as compare to perpendicular to the layer of a polymer.
