Addition polymerisation
Chemistry · Secondary 4 · Medium · Addition polymerisation
Many ethene molecules react together to form poly(ethene).
What type of polymerisation is this, and what happens to the C=C bonds in ethene?
What type of polymerisation is this, and what happens to the C=C bonds in ethene?
- Addition polymerisation; the C=C bonds break and no small molecules are lost
- Condensation polymerisation; water molecules are removed
- Addition polymerisation; water molecules are removed
- Condensation polymerisation; hydrogen gas is removed
