During our lectures on polymeric materials, I used polyethylene as an example because of its very straightforward structure.
(a.) Ethylene (C2H4) is a colorless flammable gas. Draw a diagram to show what a single molecule of this gas looks like. Show all bonds with the following symbol (—). Recall that the bonds are highly covalent in nature.

1. Nylon 6-6 is a condensation polymer. The last two experiments have pointed out that "condensation reactions are
extremely common among a variety of organic functional groups." Pick two appropriate functional groups (your choice)
and draw structures to show the condensation reaction between them. Identify the functional groups that are reacting,
as well as the linkage formed by the condensation.
