Interpretation:
The structure of the alternating copolymer of the given two compounds is to be represented.
Concept introduction:
On the basis of mode of
Addition polymers are formed when there is a movement of electrons from multiple bonds into new single bonds between molecules without elimination of small molecule.
Polymers that are formed by elimination of small molecules like
Alternative copolymers are of the type
