Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Neoprene = Elastomer (Weak intermolecular forces) Terylene \(=\) Fibre \((\) Hydrogen bonding \()\) Polystyrene \(=\) Thermoplastic (Weak intermolecular forces) Polythene \(=\) Thermoplastic (very weak intermolecular forces)
