Required Answer:

Given,

  • X and Y are monomers and polymers formed during polymerization of polyethene.

To do,

  • Equation showing X and Y

Let's do it!

So, here we have to show an equation. Firstly note that here the polymer 'Y' is 'Polyethene'.

◆ Polythene is formed when a large number of monomer called 'ethene ( X )' joined together.

Therefore, if we write it in the form of equation. Then, equation will be:

 {\underline {\boxed {\small {\tt \blue { {X}_{(ethene)} + {X}_{(ethene)} +.......{X}_{(ethene)} \longrightarrow_{(Polymerization)} {Y}_{(polyethene)} } }}}}

↑ This is the equation formed showing X and Y.

Extra Information:

  • Monomers

 \longmapsto Monomers are the simple chemical molecules made it single unit that join in a large number to form polymers.

  • Polymers

 \longmapsto Polymers are complex molecules made of many type of single unit(monomers).

  • Polymerization

 \longmapsto Polymerization is the process of formation of polymers by synthesis of monomers.
