Quick Chem question

My last question on a take home quiz. Any help?

Choose those statements that are correct about the following two condensation polymers:

(A) Prepared from ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid
and
(B) Prepared from glycerol and terephthalic acid

Both polymers have about the same molecular weight.



a) Polymer (A) would be predicted to be more flexible

b) Polymer (A) would be predicted to be weaker

c) Polymer (A) would be predicted to have the higher melting point

d) Both polymers are attracted to each other by strong hydrogen bonds

Grr... You always do this to me.

Don't worry. I still love you.

Honestly though, I have NO idea how to do this one problem. I've done 13 other's that have to do with the same topic, but I can't seem to get this one.

I could give you the answer but I think the satisfaction you will receive from actually doing it will be much greater than the satisfaction received from getting the answer from me.


BTW with the rash of people begging for answers to stuff - let's start a homework forum?


Posted by Mebot on Dec-11-2003 03:48:

Cant you just guess on the answer. sometimes it works for me


Most of the time it doesnt

Right...

And who the hell are you?
______________________________________________________________

If you can't get the answer no matter where you check (not even in the book or my notes), some help can be asked for, correct?

Anyways, I've posted a topic like this for the past 3 weeks, as there's been one or two questions that I haven't gotten in my homework, and I have yet to receive a response (as an answer) to one of them.

I'm guessing you people don't know.

Mebot, I am the WORST guesser EV4R... Heheh...


Anyways, thanks for any help... Blah.

NOTE: Realization =

I mean, I could do the reactions and figure it out in about 2 minutes, but it really isn't worth my time now is it.

Is this for organic or what?

Which would explain why you can't just do the reactions and figure out the products like I could


I remember stuff like this from gen chem though - it's not too hard just look at the compounds and think about it.

I'm thinking.

I know that ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid are mixed to turn into polyester. I have no clue what glycerol and terephthalic acid turn into...
