(a)
Interpretation:
The Lewis structure for monomer acrylonitrile has to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Lewis structure for any molecule is drawn by using the following steps,
First the skeletal structure for the given molecule is drawn then the total number of valence electrons for all atoms present in the molecule is determined
The next step is to subtract the electrons in total number of bonds present in the skeletal structure of the molecule with the total valence electrons such that considering each bond contains two electrons with it.
Finally, the electrons obtained after subtractions have to be equally distributed such that each atom contains eight electrons in its valence shell.
(b)
Interpretation:
The poisonous gas released in case of fire of rugs and upholstery has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Combustion reaction: It is the reaction in which hydrocarbons are heated in presence of oxygen results to give water and carbon dioxide with heat.

When asymmetric alkenes polymerize (such as chloroethene to produce PVC), the pendant group like chlorine can be arranged in different ways. An arrangement in which the -Cl groups are arranged on the same side of the polymer chain is called a(n) , a. Atactic b. Isotactic arrangement. c. Syndiotactic d. Sporadic 8. Kevlar is a type of polymer which has a great resistance to tear. Its application includes its use in making bulletproof vests and radial tires. The two monomers used to make Kevlar are the following: H H H-O- c-0-H H-N- -N-H Monomer One Monomer Two When these two monomers join a. A molecule of CO2 will be eliminated and an ester linkage will form b. Nothing will be eliminated and the two monomers will be linked through a hydrogen to hydrogen bond c. A water molecule will be eliminated and a peptide linkage will be formed d. Nothing will be eliminated. The two monomers will be linked by a carbon-carbon bond.arrow_forward
