Nylon 6,6 may be formed by means of a condensation polymerization reaction in which hexamethylene diamine [NH2—(CH2)6—NH2] and adipic acid react with one another with the formation of water as a by-product. What masses of hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid are necessary to yield 37.5 kg of completely linear nylon 6,6? (Note: The chemical equation for this reaction is the answer to Concept Check 14.8.)
