Write the chemical equation of the polymerization reaction to synthesize PS

Engineering
1 answer:
marin [14]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Styrene is  a vinyl monomer in which there is a carbon carbon double bond.

The polymerization of the styrene, which is initiated by using a free radical which reacts with the styrene and the compound thus forms react again and again to form polystyrene (PS).

The equation is shown below as:

\begin{matrix}& C_6H_5 \\&|\\n H_2C & =CH\end{matrix}        ⇒                \begin{matrix}&C_6H_5 \\&|\\ -[-H_2C & -CH-]-_n\end{matrix}

Gas chromatography separates compounds depending on their__________ . Benzene, m-xylene, and toluene have similar_________ , the
amm1812

Answer and Explanation:

Gas chromatography separates compounds depending on their **polarity and volatility**. Benzene, m-xylene, and toluene have similar **polarities**, therefore, the main basis for separation is **volatility**. The more volatile a component the ** higher its vapor pressure**, hence the more time it spends in the **gaseous mobile phase**, giving it a **shorter** retention time. Therefore, components of a liquid mixture will elute in order of **increasing boiling points/decreasing volatilities/increasing polarities with the stationary phase**.

1. A thin plate of a ceramic material with E = 225 GPa is loaded in tension, developing a stress of 450 MPa. Is the specimen lik
mina [271]

Answer:

fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 (= 22.5)

Explanation:

If the maximum strength at tip Is greater than theoretical fracture strength value then fracture will occur and if the maximum strength is lower than theoretical fracture strength then no fracture will occur.

\sigma_m = 2\sigma_o [\frac{a}{\rho_t}]^{1/2}

=  2\times 750 (\frac{\frac{0.2mm}{2}}{0.001 mm}})^{1/2}

                 = 15 GPa

fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 = 22.5

What impact does modulus elasticity have on the structural behavior of a mechanical design?
devlian [24]

Answer with Explanation:

The modulus of elasticity has an profound effect on the mechanical design of any machine part as explained below:

1) Effect on the stiffness of the member: The ability of any member of a machine to resist any force depends on the stiffness of the member. For a member with large modulus of elasticity the stiffness is more and hence in cases when the member has to resist a direct load the member with more modulus of elasticity resists the force better.

2)Effect on the deflection of the member: The deflection caused by a force in a member is inversely proportional to the modulus of elasticity of the member thus in machine parts in which we need to resist the deflections caused by the load we can use materials with greater modulus of elasticity.

3) Effect to resistance of shear and torque: Modulus of rigidity of a material is found to be larger if the modulus of elasticity of the material is more hence for a material with larger modulus of elasticity  the resistance it offer's to shear forces and the torques is more.

While designing a machine element since the above factors are important to consider thus we conclude that modulus of elasticity has a profound impact on machine design.
