Among cellulose, polyvinyl chloride, nylon and natural rubber, the polymer in which the intermolecular force of attraction is weakest in





Options
- Anylon
- Bpolyvinyl chloride
- Ccellulose
- Dnatural rubber
Correct answer
D. natural rubber
Step-by-step solution
\\
Due to -bonding, nylon has strong intermolecular attraction.
Cellulose is a polyhydroxy compound, also capable of forming strong intermolecular -bonding. Polyvinyl chloride is a polar polymer due to carbon chlorine bond and it possess strong dipole-dipole attraction. Natural rubber is poly (isoprene), a hydrocarbon, possess weak van der Waal's attraction.
