Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The given polymer is to be drawn using shorthand representation.
Concept introduction: The simpler units which combine to form
(b)
Interpretation: The given polymer is to be drawn using shorthand representation.
Concept introduction: The simpler units which combine to form polymers are known as monomers. The process by which respective monomers combine to form polymers is known as polymerization. If same monomers are used then the polymer is homopolymer and if different monomers are used then polymer is copolymer.
