How can you distinguish polyethylene from polypropylene based on their spectra? Give specific differences both in the C-H region and in the C-C region. What functional group is this attributed to in its structural formula? 7. Ignoring the intensities and considering only the number of peaks in the C-H region, compare the spectra of polyethylene and polypropylene with polyvinyl chloride. Formulate a hypothesis relating the C-H region of the spectrum to the polymer structure (specifically, consider the hydrogen atom environments). Support your hypothesis with evidence from these three polymers.

Consider the titration of a 28.0 mL sample of 0.175M CH3NH2 with a 0.145M HBr. Determine each of the following.
I already got initial pH: 11.94 and the volume of added acid required to reach equivalence point: 33.8 mL.
I still need help with these:
1. The pH of 4.0 mL of added acid.
2. The pH at one-half of the equivalence point.
3. The pH of the equivalence point.
4. The pH after adding 4.0 mL of acid beyond the equivalence point.
