Pearson Edexcel IAL Chemistry AS 5.7 Addition polymerisation
Pearson Edexcel IAL Chemistry syllabusChemistry YCH11First assessment 2019

Practise converting alkene monomers into addition polymers and working backwards from repeat units to monomer structures.

How this is tested

  • draw repeat units with brackets, extension bonds and n from named alkene monomers
  • identify the alkene monomer by restoring the C=C bond across the polymer repeat unit
  • write balanced addition polymerisation equations for monomers
