H-C=C-H

thus polyethylene would look like this:
H H H H

H-C=C-C=C-C=C-C=C-H
| | | |
H H H H
though probably longer usually.
that doesn't come out with a monospaced font for me, is that how it is for everyone else?
how about this:
CH2=CH1-CH1=CH1-CH1=CH1-CH1=CH2
polyester would have to have oxygens and OH's in it just like an ester does.
edit: pardon me, I put too many hydrogens in previously, I've corrected this now. thanks badbody
