(a)
Interpretation: The reactivity of ethylene oxide is to be stated and the structure of ethylene oxide polymer is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: A single unit of polymer is known as monomer.
To determine: The reactivity of ethylene oxide.
(b)
Interpretation: The reactivity of ethylene oxide is to be stated and the structure of ethylene oxide polymer is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: A single unit of polymer is known as monomer. Polymers are formed mainly by two types of reactions namely, addition reactions and condensation polymerization reactions. Ethylene oxide also known as oxirane is a cyclic ether and a simplest epoxide. It undergoes polymerization through free-radical and ionic mechanisms.
To determine: The structure of ethylene oxide polymer.
