(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The chemical reaction for polymerization of given monomer to Teflon has to be drawn.

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.

Polymers are macromolecules which are formed a by number of repeating units called monomers.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reasons why repeating head-to-tail arrangement is not possible in Teflon 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.

Polymers are macromolecules which are formed a by number of repeating units called monomers.

Terpenes are made by joining five-carbon units, usually in a head to tail-fashion.

Predict the major products of the following organic reaction: + Some important notes: A ? • Draw the major product, or products, of the reaction in the drawing area below. • If there aren't any products, because no reaction will take place, check the box below the drawing area instead. • Be sure to use wedge and dash bonds when necessary, for example to distinguish between major products that are enantiomers. Explanation Check Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
if the answer is no reaction than state that and please hand draw!
