(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Identify the monomer for synthesis of Kodel and the condition for polymerization reaction.

Concept introduction:

Fischer esterification is a process in which carboxylic acid is heated with alcohol in presence of acid to give a ester.  If the compound has two carboxylic acid group and the other compound has two hydroxyl groups, then successive Fischer esterification is possible leading to polymerized product.  Kodel is a synthetic polyester.
