(a)
Interpretation: The monomers used to prepare the given polymer or
Concept introduction: The simpler units which combine to form
(b)
Interpretation: The monomers used to prepare the given polymer or copolymer is to be determined.
Concept introduction: The simpler units which combine to form polymers are known as monomers. The process by which respective monomers combine to form polymers is known as polymerization. If same monomers are used then the polymer is homopolymer and if different monomers are used then polymer is copolymer.
