-(CH2-CH2)-n is an adequate conventional abbreviation to represent a repeat unit in the polymer. It is over understood that the n value is too big, in an order of hundreds. The individual chains of PolyEthylene are compacts, it explain the crystallization properties of a substance. The polymers done for one kind of monomer like the polyethylene are called homopolymers.
As said your answer is Polyethylene.
Name that polymer based on the structure of the repeating unit. The structure of the repeating...
Draw the structure and indicate the repeating unit of Nylon-8,5, using the convention that the polymer you prepared is called Nylon-6,10. Based on the reaction you performed, what are the names and structures of the reactants you would use to prepare Nylon-8,5. Use structures to describe three possible end-groups for a Nylon-8,5 polymer molecule that was prepared.
Can you draw repeating unit of the polymer Nylon 6,6 and circle and label functional groups :)

Remember that polymers are solids composed of molecules that are long chains of repeating units. Repeat units are shown below for 3 common polymers—polyethylene, PVC, and nylon. Explain which polymer you think would have the lowest melting point, and which would have the highest. (Note: which is more relevant in this instance, primary bonding or secondary bonding? How would this type of interaction differ among the three polymers?)
