Answer

Step by step solution

01

Polymerization

Polymerization is the formation of chain-like or network molecules, called polymers, from relatively small molecules called monomers.

02

Representative segment of Poly (vinyl pyrrolidone):

The representative segment of a polymer means a repetitive unit from which the polymer is made. Here the alkene carbons of N-vinylpyrrolidone join with other monomer units to give Poly (vinyl pyrrolidone).

Reaction of HBr with 3-methylcyclohexene yields a mixture of four products: cis- and trans-1-bromo-3-methylcyclohexane and cis- and trans-1-bromo-2-methylcyclohexane. The analogous reaction of HBr with 3-bromocyclohexene yields trans-1,2-dibromocyclohexane as the sole product. Draw structures of the possible intermediates, and then explain why only a single product is formed in this reaction.

Which of the reactions below would result in a product mixture thatwould rotate plane-polarized light?
