Define what temperature index is related to polymers?
The value of Tg depends heavily on the mobility of the polymer chain, and for most synthetic polymers lies between 170°K and 500°K (-103°C and 227°C). Pure crystalline polymers do not have a glass transition temperature because the glass transition temperature is only applicable to amorphous polymers.
What do polymers contain?
Strictly chemistry speaking: a polymer is a repeated chain of a single molecule. They can be easily synthesized in a lab to create materials with specific properties (i.e. contact lenses, plastics, water repellant)
Does polymer chain length matter?
yes it does. the chain length matters as it effects the voloitity of the polymer and the strength.
What is the difference between simple and long chain polymer?
simple polymer are define as themosofning plastic where as long chain polymer define as thermosetting plastic

What is the difference between solid polymer and liquid polymer?
One is solid, one is liquid.A polymer is just a large molecule (macromolecule) made up of a chain of repeating structural units (monomers), and a liquid one would just be a liquid polymer. Any major differences would depend entirely on the specific polymer.
What is the chain of small molecules?
Polymer .
What synthetic polymer gets harder as the number of carbon atoms in the polymer chain increase?
Polyethylene
What synthetic polymer gets harder as the number of carbon atoms in the polymer chain increases?
Polyethylene
What type of molecule is defined as a chain of repeating copies of smaller molecules?
This is a polymer.
What is the relationships between monomer's and polymer's?
Monomers are the building blocks that are used to make polymers. Remember: mono = one, poly = many Monomers are like the links in a chain and polymers are like the chain. Many chain links (monomers) make up a whole chain (polymer)
