The correct statement regarding X and Y in the following set of reactions is

- A X is HDP and Y is LDP
- B X is LDP and Y is HDP
- C X is used in the preparation of flexible pipes and Y is used in manufacturing squeeze bottles
- D \(X\) is used in insulation of electricity carrying wires, \(Y\) is used in manufacturing of bottles
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) X is LDP and Y is HDP
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
X is formed from ethene using Ziegler-Natta catalyst, low T, low P, thus X is HDP. Y is formed from ethene using high T, high P, oxygen initiator, thus Y is LDP. Therefore, X is HDP and Y is LDP.
