Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among the given terms, the term that explains reason for addition of water to cyanoacrylate has to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Anionic Polymerizations:  It can be initiated by addition of a nucleophile to an activated

Alkene.  The most common nucleophiles used for this purpose are metal alkyls such as methyl- and sec-butyllithium. The newly formed carbanion then acts as a nucleophile and adds to another monomer unit, and the propagation continues.
