Can you please help, i will be v v grateful.


1) Displayed formula for Propene.



Is this correct?



2) Butandioic acid + Ethane 1,2 Diol  Condesation P.

HOO (CH2)2 COOH + HOO (CH2)2 OH ---> -HOOC (CH2)2-(Esterbond)-0-(CH2)-OH + H20


Benzene  1,2 Dicarboxylic acid + Ethane 1,2 Diol

HOOC-(CH2)6COOH + HO (CH2)2 OH

Resulting Polymer: HOOC (CH2)6-(EsterBond)-O-(CH2)2OH+ H20


I have a problem with these questions, and i was wondering what is the answer and how do you get it.

Which polymer chain is more linear and why?
Which polymer chain has chains that will pack closely and why
Predict general properties of each polyer and how they differ.

Thanks
