Question

what are polymers? explene the polymerization of ethane.​

Answer 1

Answer:

You will remember that during the polymeriation of ethene, thousands of ethene molecules join together to make poly(ethene) - commonly called polythene. The reaction is done at high pressures in the presence of a trace of oxygen as an initiator.

Answer 2
