Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary mechanism by which addition polymers are formed?
  • Step 1: Understand what addition polymers are. They are large molecules made by joining many small units called monomers.
  • Step 2: Learn about free radicals. Free radicals are highly reactive particles that can start chemical reactions.
  • Step 3: Know that the process begins with a free radical. This free radical attacks a monomer, causing it to become reactive.
  • Step 4: The reactive monomer then connects to another monomer, forming a chain. This chain continues to grow as more monomers join.
  • Step 5: The process continues until many monomers are linked together, creating a long addition polymer.
