(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The following group of monomers should be ranked from most able to least able to undergo cationic polymerization.

Concept Introduction:

Cationic polymerization:

  • The polymerization in which an electrophile acts as an initiator and adds to the monomer which leads to the formation of a carbocation.
  • The initiator widely used is a Lewis acid and in the polymerization the electrophile adds to the sp2 carbon bonded to the most hydrogens.

(b)
