Show me the molecular structure of plastic, margarine and butter.?

Question

I need the detailed info as a classroom interactive experience.

Answer 1

Well, your question is a little too vague to be answered simple here.

There are, quite literally, thousands of plastics -- another name for polymers -- which are long chains or networks made up of repeating segments (monomers). See here:

Margarine and butter are emulsions of fats in water:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margerine

So, in all three cases, a molecular structure is quite out of the question on this forum!

Answer 2

Margarine Molecular Structure

Answer 3

My wife is a nurse and came across something similar to this in a medical journal we have been eating nothing but small amounts of butter for the last 15 years. I grew up on home made butter since my uncle had a dairy farm and made his own. Some of the lower calorie butters aren't bad. They are a little thin since they are made with lower fat milk. But if you are watching your fats and calories they are decent alternative.
