17.73 Draw a portion of the
cooking pans. Teflon is used as a nonstick coating on |
Interpretation: The expanded structural formula for a portion of teflon formed from three monomers of 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethene should be drawn.
Concept Introduction: The substance which is made up of molecules with a large molecular mass formed by repeating structural units which are connected by covalent bonds are said to be the polymer.
Answer to Problem 73UTC
Explanation of Solution
Teflon, is a polymer in nature, made up from the 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethene (monomer) by the process said to be addition polymerization process
In addition polymerization process, there is no loss of any small molecule and the polymer is formed by simple linking of monomers.

In addition to calcium oxalate another product is also formed in the formation of kidney stones in the body. Certain foods are high in oxalate and lead to an increase of forming kidney stones in the human body. These high-risk foods are as follows: Spinach Swiss Chard Almonds (nuts in general) Sesame Seeds Soy Products (such as soy-based milk, cheese, yogurt) Sweet Potatoes Okra Beets Chocolate Black Tea Another risk factor to developing kidney stones is not drinking enough water. Males have a higher chance than females of developing kidney stones, with the average age being 30. Oxalate in food binds to calcium during digestion in the stomach and intestines and then is excreted in the body as waste. If too much oxalate appears in the urine and not enough liquid (due to not drinking enough water), then calcium oxalate crystals form, which are the kidney stone. A 35 year old male was taken to the hospital…arrow_forwardOne of the most common types of kidney stones are composed of calcium oxalate.
