(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The polymerization reaction for production of polypropylene from n monomers has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Polymers: Monomers combine together to form polymers. Monomers are the repeating units of small molecules which link together to form polymers and the process is called as polymerization.

Monomer: A molecule is considered as monomer when this molecule bonds with another identical molecule which results to form polymer.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The random arrangement of monomers present in polypropylene segment has to be given.
