(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Monomers required for the given polymer to be prepared need to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Polymers can be distinguished based on the functional group it has in the structure.  The monomer considered for forming the polymer determines the functional group in the polymer.  Few examples are,

  • Acid +alcohol=polyester
  • Acid+amine=polyamide
  • Alcohol+phosgene=polycarbonate
  • Alcohol+isocyanate=polycarbamate
  • Aldehyde= polyether

To draw : To draw the structure of monomers required for preparation of given polymer.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

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.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Concept introduction:

Polymers can be classified as addition polymer and condensation polymer. Addition polymers are the one which are formed without the loss of any small molecules.  Usually compounds with vinylic bonds involve in addition polymerizationCondensation polymers are the one which are formed with the loss of small molecules such as water, ammonia etc.

Don't used Ai solution
I have a question about this problem involving mechanisms and drawing curved arrows for acids and bases. I know we need to identify the nucleophile and electrophile, but are there different types of reactions? For instance, what about Grignard reagents and other types that I might not be familiar with? Can you help me with this? I want to identify the names of the mechanisms for problems 1-14, such as Gilman reagents and others. Are they all the same? Also, could you rewrite it so I can better understand? The handwriting is pretty cluttered. Additionally, I need to label the nucleophile and electrophile, but my main concern is whether those reactions differ, like the "Brønsted-Lowry acid-base mechanism, Lewis acid-base mechanism, acid-catalyzed mechanisms, acid-catalyzed reactions, base-catalyzed reactions, nucleophilic substitution mechanisms (SN1 and SN2), elimination reactions (E1 and E2), organometallic mechanisms, and so forth."
