Question
Chapter 24.3, Problem 3PPB
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Whether the given molecule serves as good liquid crystal or not and the reason behind that should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
- Liquid crystal exhibits both the properties of liquids (particles not closely arranged and are free to move in all directions) and solids (particles arranged regularly).
- Liquid crystals are anisotropic, that is its properties depend on directions that is it exhibits different properties in different directions based on the orientation of particles in it.
- A substance to be a good liquid crystal must possess rigid structure and must be relatively long while comparing with its width.
To Determine: The given structure serves as good liquid crystal and the reason that supports it.
