Question

Number of bonding sites in Monomer is known as

Answer 1

Answer:

According to IUPAC, the functionality of a monomer is defined as the number of bonds that a monomer's repeating unit forms in a polymer with other monomers. Thus in the case of a functionality of f = 2 a linear polymer is formed by polymerizing (a thermoplastic).

Answer 2

Answer:

The number of bonds that a monomer's repeating unit produces in a polymer with other monomers is how IUPAC defines a monomer's functionality.

Explanation:

• The quantity of bonding sites in a monomer determines its functionality.
• The monomers ethene and propene, for instance, each have the functionality of 1.
• The functionality of the monomers 1,3-butadiene and adipic acid is 2, respectively.
• "Monomers" are the tiny molecules that combine to make polymers.
• Sometimes a small number of monomers can combine to form a medium-sized molecule.
• For example, a dimer is made up of two repeating units, a trimer is made up of three, and so on.
• With the release of a water molecule, a monomer unites with another monomer to form a covalent bond.
• Dehydration or condensation reactions are the names for these kinds of processes.
