(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The three segment of 1,4-polymerized product of 1,3-butadiene 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.

Two types of polymers:

  • Synthetic and biopolymers.
  • DNA is an example for biopolymer and these type of polymers are synthesized by cells.
  • Polymers synthesized by scientists are called synthetic polymers and some examples are nylon, polyester etc.

Two types of synthetic polymers:

  • Chain-growth polymers or addition polymers and Step-growth polymers or Condensation polymers.
  • Chain growth polymers are formed by the monomer addition to the end of a growing chain.
  • Step-growth polymers are formed by combining monomers by removing small molecules of water or alcohol.

Students have asked these similar questions
Draw three segments of the polymer that is formed from 1,2-polymerization of 1,3-butadiene.
Which function group/s is/are present in monomers that undergo cationic polymerization. A. electron donating B. electron withdrawing C. both a and b D. none of the given choices
This polymer is composed of 2 monomer units: an acid chloride and an amine. In the box below, draw the structure of both monomers. (8-10 C (CH₂)6-C CH₂ 어 H n • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • Do not include lone pairs in your answer. They will not be considered in the grading. • Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. • Separate structures with + signs from the drop-down menu.
