What is the key difference between low-density polythene (LDP) and high-density polythene (HDP)?
Options
- ALDP is chemically inert, while HDP is chemically reactive.
- BLDP has a highly branched structure, while HDP consists of linear molecules.
- CLDP is a good conductor of electricity, while HDP is an insulator.
- DLDP is transparent, while HDP is opaque.
Correct answer
B. LDP has a highly branched structure, while HDP consists of linear molecules.
Step-by-step solution
The key difference between low-density polythene (LDP) and high-density polythene (HDP) is that LDP has a highly branched structure, while HDP consists of linear molecules.
