Polymers that can conduct electricity are called conducting polymers. Some polymers can be made semiconducting; others can benearly metallic. Polyacetylene is an example of a polymer that is a semiconductor. It can also be doped to increase its conductivity.Polyacetylene is made from acetylene in a reaction that looks simple but is actually tricky to do:H—C≡ C— HAcetylene [— CH=CH— ]n Polyacetylene(a) What is the hybridization of the carbon atoms, and the geometry around those atoms, in acetylene and in polyacetylene?(b) Write a balanced equation to make polyacetylene from acetylene.

What is a typical product of condensation polymerization reactions? butane methane hydrogen gas water chlorine gas

when solid glucose (C6H12O6) is placed in water the solid seprates into individual atoms the solid seprates into its component ions the solid seprates into indovidual molecules the solid melt into the liquid phase

When two monomers (X and Y) are polymerized together, a copolymer results. An alternating copolymer is formed when the two monomers X and Y alternate regularly in the polymer chain. Draw the structure of the alternating copolymer formed when the two monomers, CH2 ≡ CCl2 and CH2 = CHC6H5, are polymerized together.

in cosmetics, why would a LDP Liquid Dispersible Polymer or pre-neutralized acrylate polymer be more advantageous that a regular powdered crosslinked or linear acrylic acid based homopolymer / copolymer?

The name carbohydrate comes from the fact that many simple sugars have chemical formulae that look like water has simply been added to carbon. (The suffix hydrate from the Greek word hydor ("water") means "compound formed by the addition of water.") The actual chemical structure of carbohydrates doesn't look anything like water molecules bonded to carbon atoms (see sketch at right). But it is nevertheless possible to chemically extract all the hydrogen and oxygen from many simple carbohydrates as water, leaving only carbon behind. If you search the Internet for "reaction of sulfuric acid and sugar" you will find some impressive videos of this. Suppose you had  300.g  of ordinary table sugar, which chemists call sucrose, and which has the chemical formula  C12H22O11 . Calculate the maximum mass of water you could theoretically extract. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.

There are two (2) types of polymerization; addition or linear and cross-linked or condensation. Addition polymers are thermoplastics and cross-linked polymers are thermosetting materials.  True  False
