(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Identify the repeating unit of the polymer formed and classify as chain-growth or step-growth polymers.

Concept introduction:

  • Polymers can be classified as chain-growth and step-growth polymers. 
  • Chain-growth polymers are the one which are formed when monomer is added to the other monomer growing chain one at a time. 
  • This growing polymer chain usually has only one reactive site.  This site is called growth point. 
  • Step-growth polymers are the one when the monomers react with each other to form oligomers. 
  • These oligomers are joined together to form polymers.  This usually occurs when difunctional monomers are used.  This has got two growth points.

To identify: The polymer formed and to determine whether it is step-growth or chain-growth polymer.

Consider the reaction of a propanoate ester with hydroxide ion shown below. A series of four alcohol leaving groups were tested to determine which would be the best leaving group. Based on the pKa values of the alcohols, predict which alcohol would produce the fastest hydrolysis reaction. HO FOR A Alcohol I, pKa =16.0 B Alcohol II, pKa =10.0 C Alcohol III, pKa = 7.2 + ROH D Alcohol IV, pKa = 6.6
