The monomers used in additions polymerizations through free radical should be very pure because
A
The traces of impurities act like inhibitors resulting in short chain polymers
B
The impurities result in formations of different products
C
The polymer formed is impure
D
Catalyst does not functions in presence of impurities.
Answer
The traces of impurities act like inhibitors resulting in short chain polymers
Explanation
Solution
Pure monomers are required because even the traces or impurities act like inhibitors which leads to the formations of polymers with shorter chain lengths.
