Interpretation:
Using bond energies present in Table
Concept Introduction:
Exothermic reaction: Exothermic reactions are those in which evolution of heat takes place during
Endothermic reaction: Endothermic reactions are those in which heat is absorbed during chemical reaction. In such type of reactions, external energy is needed.
Polymers are macromolecules which are formed a by number of repeating units called monomers.

- The average bond enthalpy for C-His 413 kJ/mol. 413 kJ of energy is required to break a mole of CH into atoms: CH(g)→C(g) + H(g), AH=413 kJ Using this information, and your answer from Part A, calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction from Part B. That is, calculate the energy required to break only the carbon-carbon bonds in benzene.

- 7cd (JUST SIMPLY ANSWER THE QUESTION BELOW) 1. Why are olefins (alkanes) good monomers for polymerization reaction? 2. "Co-polymers" consist of two different monomers ("A" and "B") joined in an alternating fashion (ABABAB...). Block co-polymers also consist of two different monomers, but in this case, blocks of polymer containing only A units are joined to blocks of polymer containing only B units (AAAAABBBBB...).
