Interpretation:
Using bond energies present in Table
Concept Introduction:
Exothermic reaction: Exothermic reactions are those in which evolution of heat takes place during
Endothermic reaction: Endothermic reactions are those in which heat is absorbed during chemical reaction. In such type of reactions, external energy is needed.
Polymers are macromolecules which are formed a by number of repeating units called monomers.
