I'm 95% sure you can't have "methly" twice in a IUPAC name


Of course you can.

I usually / by 2 to get the simplest ratio until you cant half anymore to get a simple number - just curios why it didnt work here


Even if you divide by two it still works, so C6H12 divide by two gives you C3H6 then divide by three will give you CH2

A trimer is a polymer with only 3 monomers in it, the answer to this question is basically the product formed in step 3 but with an extra monomer of ethanal added.
so it should look like this i think: Screen Shot 2016-06-13 at 15.26.50.png

here you go: Screen Shot 2016-06-13 at 20.51.33.png You basically have to repeat the steps to add another monomer. I forgot to put a OH- which is formed as well on the last step


Thank you!!
What the hell was that paper.
That was a decent paper. Typical grade boundaries.
Grade boundaries will be low

It was. I found it hard myself, but I like to joke about it. Everyone else on this thread took me seriously tho. Lol.

Dw, grade boundaries will definitely be lower.

I didn't think it was so bad? I couldn't even look at the past papers and thought those were hard, this years seemed easier than all previous years
