MHT CET Chemistry Question (2026) — Solution
Options
- A. Nylon 6
- B. Dacron
- C. Polythene
- D. Nylon 6,6
Answer
C. Polythene
Step-by-step solution
Addition polymerization involves the repeated addition of monomer molecules possessing double or triple bonds to form a polymer without the elimination of any small molecules. Polythene is formed by the addition polymerization of ethene (CH_2=CH_2) molecules. Nylon 6, Dacron, and Nylon 6,6 are formed by condensation polymerization, which involves the elimination of small molecules like water. Answer: Polythene
