Question

For each molecule or pair of molecules below, answer the given questions. You may want to consider what and how many functional groups must be present in the monomer or monomers that make an addition polymer or a condensation polymer. H_2 C = CHCl Can this be a monomer? For an addition polymer, a condensation polymer, or both? Why? CH_3 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 COOH and CH_3 OH This pair cannot form a condensation polymer.. .why not??? HOOCCH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 NH_2 Can this be a monomer? For an addition polymer, a condensation polymer, or both? Why? HOOCCH_2 CH_2 CH_2 CH_2 COOH and HO-CH_2 CH_2-OH Can this pair form an addition polymer, a condensation polymer, or both? Why?

Explanation / Answer

H2C=CHCl, IT CAN BE MONOMER FOR ADDITION POLYMER AS IT HAS ONLY ONE FUNCTIONAL GROUP IT FORMS POLY VINYL CHLORIDE.

CH3CH2CH2CH2COOH and CH3OH CANNOT FORM CODENSATION POLYMER BECAUSE TO FORM CONDENSATION POLYMER TWO BI-FUNCTIONAL MONOMERS ARE REQUIRED.

HCOOCCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2NH2 CAN BE AN MONOMER FOR CONDENSATION POLMER BECAUSE IT IS BI-FUNCTIONAL MONOMER, IT FORMS INTERMEDIATE CAPROLACTUM TO FORM NYLON-6 POLYMER

HOOCCH2CH2CH2CH2COOH and OH-CH2-CH2-OH CAN FORM CONDENSATION POLYMER BECAUSE IT CONSISTS OF TWO MONOMERS OF BI-FUNCTIONAL.
