Chapter 18, Problem 45CI
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The condensed structural formula for the product of reaction between terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol in the 1:1 ratio needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Polymers are formed by polymerisation of certain monomer units. Based on type of chemical reaction, polymerisation can be two types; condensation polymerisation and addition polymerisation. Addition polymerisation occurs between unsaturated monomer units whereas condensation polymerisation occurs with elimination of water molecule as by-product between two functional groups. PETE is an example of condensation polymer.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The condensed structural formula for the product of reaction between the product in part (a) and 1 mol of ethylene glycol needs to be determined.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The mass of PETE recycled in one year needs to be determined.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The volume of PETE recycled in 1 year needs to be determined.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

The number of landfills required to fill the amount of PETE recycled in 1 year needs to be determined.
