) PLA, a polyester-based synthetic polymer, decomposes in our body fluid and separates into its constituent acids and alcohol. This acid in the body can cause inflammation. What would you recommend to overcome this disadvantage? b) The late decomposition of PLA, which is a biodegradable and hydrophobic polymer, in body fluid may create a disadvantage in applications where faster degradation is desired. What would you suggest to do to resolve this situation? Please explain.
I am studying homolytic and heterolytic cleavage. In the halogenation of methane, a methyl radical is formed as an intermediate which indicates homolytic cleavage. Why is the cleavage homolytic and not heterolytic? What is the main determinate of when heterolytic or homolytic cleavage occurs? How big does the electronegativty difference need to be?

Compound K, L and M are three isomers with the molecular formula C5H10O.Compound K cannot be oxidized, while compound M and L can be oxidized.Oxidation of compound L with hot acidified potassium permanganate,KMnO4 solution yields 2-methylbutanoic acid. When treated with Iodoformreagent, yellow precipitation only occurs in compound K. Fehling test onlyyielded positive results for compound L and negative for compound M andK. Compound M is then reacted with hydrogen chloride, HCl produceschlorocyclopentane
