Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 11.134 Polymers and Materials Chemistry skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Use the final design-evidence board. Which student conclusion is best supported for the reusable lunch container?

AThe brittle thermoset is best because recyclability and impact behavior are irrelevant.

BThe lightest material is automatically best even if it softens during washing.

CNo conclusion can use multiple pieces of material evidence.

DA semicrystalline polypropylene-like material is a stronger choice than a brittle thermoset because it balances heat tolerance, toughness, mass, and recyclability.

Solution & Explanation:The evidence board requires combining structure, thermal performance, mechanical behavior, mass, and end-of-life information. The best conclusion weighs all major constraints.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Use the density-crystallinity calibration. Which unknown sample has the greatest crystallinity?

AUnknown X, because its density is lowest.

BUnknown Y, because it has the middle density only.

CUnknown Z, because its density is highest on the calibration trend.

DAll unknowns must have identical crystallinity regardless of density.

Solution & Explanation:For the calibration shown, density increases with crystallinity. The unknown with the highest density corresponds to the greatest crystallinity.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A polymer part cracks during winter use but performs well in summer. Which explanation best connects temperature and structure?

ACold weather removes all covalent bonds from the material.

BWinter temperature may be below the polymer's glass transition, limiting chain motion and causing brittle behavior.

CSummer use proves the polymer has no glass transition.

DTemperature cannot affect polymer segment motion.

Solution & Explanation:Below the glass transition, segmental motion is restricted and many polymers become glassy or brittle. Above it, they can be tougher or more flexible.
