Suggest and explain a reason for this difference in propertiescrosslinks will prevent chains moving apart (sufficiently to dissolve) / held in position (so it does not dissolve)
without crosslinks water will force polymer chains apart (and so polymer will dissolve) - 97describe how the student used a colorimeter to find out how the concentration of the blue dye changed when added to the polymerSelect orange/red/complementary colour for filter
2. Make up/use dye solutions of different known/standard concentrations
