Question

Consider the following statements regarding polymer
I. The functionality of ethene, propene, styrene acrylonitrile is two.
II. The functionality of ethylene glycol, adipic acid hexamethylene diamine is one.
Identify whether the above statements are correct or incorrect and according mark the correct option.

• A. Statement I is correct
• B. Statement II is correct
• C. Both statements I and II are correct
• D. Both the statements are incorrect

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Functionality of a monomer means the number of bonding sites present in it, e.g. functionality of ethene, propene, styrene, acrylonitrile is one and that of ethylene glycol, adipic acid hexamethylene diamine is two
