(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The molecular formula of Teflon has to be found and how its coating prevents food from sticking to the pan has also to be found.

Concept introduction:

Teflon:

It is a long-chain polymer of repeating units of the monomer C2F4 . It is mostly non-reactive due to the strong carbon-fluorine bonds.
