Get started for freeNatural rubber is a diene polymer known as isoprene. What is the most likely explanation for isoprene's ability to stretch?A. Isoprene undergoes vulcanization, which induces cross-linking between carbon atoms in nearby rubber chains. B. Double bonds induce shape irregularities, which prevent neighboring chains from nestling together. C. Alkane polymer chains orient along the direction of pull by sliding over each other. D. Isoprene is able to undergo rapid hydration/dehydration reaction.
In an alkane halogenation reaction. which of the following steps will never produce a radical? A. initiation B. propagation C. conjugation D. termination
In a sample of cis-1,2-dichlorocyclohexane at room temperature, the chlorines will: A. both be equatorial whenever the molecule is in the chair conformation. B. both be axial whenever the molecule is in the chair conformation. C. alternate between both equatorial and both axial whenever the molecule is in the chair conformation. D. both alternate between equatorial and axial but will never exist both axial or both equatorial at the same time.
