Question 11. Which one among the following is a thermosetting plastic?
  1.    PVC
  2.    PVA
  3.    Bakelite
  4.    Perspex
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Bakelite
:
C
Bakelite is thermosetting polymer. It becomes infusible on heating and cannot be remoulded.
Question 12. Based on the mode of their formation, polymers can be classified as?
  1.    As addition polymers only
  2.    As condensation polymers only
  3.    As copolymers
  4.    Both as addition and condensation polymers
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Both as addition and condensation polymers
:
D
Both as addition and condensation polymers.
Question 13. Which of the following is a biodegradable polymer?
  1.    Cellulose
  2.    PHBV
  3.    PGA and PLA
  4.    All of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> All of these
:
D
All are biodegradable.
Which Of The Following Is A Biodegradable Polymer?
Question 14. Assertion: Teflon has high thermal stability and chemical inertness.
Reason: Teflon is a thermoplastic.
  1.    If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
  2.    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
  3.    If the assertion and reason both are false.
  4.    If assertion is false but reason is true.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
:
B
Due to the presence of strongC–Fbondsteflon has high thermal stability and chemical inertness.
And it is true that it is a thermoplastic. It changes shape on heating and retains the shape. It cannot be reshaped on further heating.
So, it is true that it is chemically inert but not because it is a thermoplastic.
Question 15. Which of the following possess the relative strength of intermolecular forces of attraction between that of elastomers and fibres?
  1.    Terylene
  2.    Polythene
  3.    Bakelite
  4.    Nylon
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Polythene
:
B
Thermoplastic polymers possess intermolecular forces of attraction between elastomers and fibres.Polythene is a thermoplastic polymer.
Question 16. Which of the following is not an example of natural polymer?
  1.    Wool
  2.    Silk
  3.    Leather
  4.    Nylon
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> Nylon
:
D
Nylon is a synthetic polymer
Question 17. Which of the following are addition polymers?
I. Nylon
II. Polyacrylonitirile
III. Melamine formaldehyde resin
IV. Polystyrene
  1.    I, II
  2.    I, III
  3.    II, IV
  4.    III, IV
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> II, IV
:
C
Which Of The Following Are Addition Polymers?I. NylonII. Pol...
Question 18. Which of the following polymers has amide linkage?
  1.    Terylene
  2.    Cellulose
  3.    Nylon-6,6
  4.    Bakelite
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Nylon-6,6
:
C
Nylons are types of polyamides.
Even if you didn't know that, if you remember the monomers of nylon-6,6 which are hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid; and if you know about condensation polymerisation, you can figure out the structure of nylon-6,6
Which Of The Following Polymers Has Amide Linkage?
If you remember, an amide is CONH2 ... here we have CONH, this is the amide linkage.
Question 19. Which one of the following polymers will not catch fire even at a high temperature of 300C?
  1.    (−CF2−CF2−)n
  2.    (−CH2−CH2−)n
  3.    (−CH|Cl−CH|Cl−)n
  4.    (−CH2−CH|Cl−)n
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> (−CF2−CF2−)n
:
A
Teflon (CF2CF2)n is stable upto 598K.
Question 20. Which of the following properties is not true about polymer ‘B’?
  1.    It is a cross-linked polymer
  2.    It can be reused
  3.    It has heavily branched molecules
  4.    a, b, c
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> It can be reused
:
B
'B' isBakelite. Bakelite is a thermosetting polymer. it cannot be reused
