1. Polystyrene can be prepared in the laboratory by heating a mixture of styrene and kerosene under reflux. The structure of styrene is C6H5CH=CH2
6a.). What characteristic in the structure of styrene enables it to act as a monomer?
6b.). Write the chemical equation for the polymerization.
6c.).Suggest ONE reason why polystyrene should be expanded before it is used to make disposable lunch boxes.
6d.). State whether you agree with the following statement. Explain your answer." Landfilling is better than incineration for the disposal of polystyrene wastes."
