Question 32

A molecular modelling program compares an alkene, X, with three proposed repeating units for its polymer.

Molecule or proposed repeating unitNumber of carbon atomsNumber of hydrogen atomsBond between the two reacting carbon atoms
X48double
R48single
S48double
T46single

Explain which proposed repeating unit is consistent with addition polymerisation. Your answer should also explain whether a molecule other than the polymer would be produced.
