Q2 / 180 · KCET 2019 · Chemistry
The polymer containing five methylene groups in its repeating unit is
- ADacron
- BBakelite
- CNylon \( 6,6 \)
- Correct answerDNylon \( 6 \)
Solution
(D)
Nylon-6, the monomer has \( 5 \) methylene groups \( \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{~N}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{COOH} \)
Nylon-6, the monomer has \( 5 \) methylene groups \( \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{~N}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{COOH} \)
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
