Question 24. Which of the following is used in the manufacture of Synthetic Rubber?
  1.    Nylon
  2.    Dacron
  3.    Neoprene
  4.    Cis-polyisoprene
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Neoprene
:
C
Which Of The Following Is Used In The Manufacture Of Synthet...
Synthetic Rubber is Manufactured using neoprene.
Question 25. Which of the following is one of the starting materials for the following resin intermediate?  Which Of The Following Is One Of The Starting Materials For ...
  1.    Formaldehyde
  2.    Phenol
  3.    Novolac
  4.    Bakelite
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Formaldehyde
:
A
Melamine and formaldehyde are starting materials for this intermediate. Its polymerisation gives melamine polymer.
Question 26. Which among the following is polymer ‘A’?
  1.    Melamine
  2.    Novolac
  3.    Terylene
  4.    Bakelite
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Novolac
:
B
A’ is novolac, ‘B’ is Bakelite. Novolac is a phenol-formaldehyde resin with a formaldehyde to phenol molar ratio of less than one.
Question 27. High density polyethylene(HDPE) can be prepared from ethylene by
  1.    Ziegler-Natta process
  2.    Heating with peroxides
  3.    Condensing in sealed tubes
  4.    Condensing with styrenes
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Ziegler-Natta process
:
A
HDPE ispreparedbyco-ordination polymerization whichoccursthroughtheintermediateformationofco-ordinationcomplexes.Forexample,ethylenefirstformsaco-ordinationcomplex with the transition metal titanium by donating its π electrons. The π complex thus formed then reacts stepwise with a large number of ethylene moleculesultimately leading to the formation of a polymer. The polythene so obtained has high density (0.92g/cm3) and higher m.pt.(403K)ascompareto LDPE(density0.92g/cm3andm.pt.384K)
