Chapter 8, Problem 8.67PAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Concept introduction:
Polymerization of alkenes involve with three important steps, Chain initiation, propagation and chain termination. In these steps, Chain initiation requires higher temperature to initiate the reaction. It involves mainly neutral molecules. Chain propagation occurs between a neutral molecule and a radical which formed in the first step. The last step is Chain termination which involves with two free radicals.
