Most organic polymers are named based on the monomers used in their production. However, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is not made f

rom vinyl alcohol, but instead from vinyl acetate that is hydrolized after formation of the polymer. Why can't we use vinyl alcohol in this polymerization

Answer:

Polymerization involves the synthesis of two or more monomers to get a polymer which is usually complex.

Polyvinyl alcohol can’t be used as a monomer(raw material) for polymerization because it is very unstable under normal conditions and will rearrange molecularly to give polyvinyl acetaldehyde.

If have a volume of 18 L of a gas at a temperature of 272 K and a pressure of 90 atm, what will be the pressure of the gas if ra
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

P₂ ≅ 100 atm (1 sig. fig. based on the given value of P₁ = 90 atm)

Explanation:

Given:

P₁ = 90 atm                    P₂ = ?

V₁ = 18 Liters(L)              L₂ = 12 Liters(L)      

=> decrease volume => increase pressure

=> volume ratio that will increase 90 atm is (18L/12L)                                                                  

T₁ = 272 Kelvin(K)          T₂ = 274 Kelvin(K)

=>  increase temperature => increase pressure

=> temperature ratio that will increase 90 atm is (274K/272K)

n₁ = moles = constant    n₂ = n₁ = constant

P₂ = 90 atm x (18L/12L) x (274K/272K) = 135.9926471 atm (calculator)

By rule of sig. figs., the final answer should be rounded to an accuracy equal to the 'measured' data value having the least number of sig. figs. This means P₂ ≅ 100 atm based on the given value of P₁ = 90 atm.
