Which of the following polymer has strongest intermolecular forces of attraction?
- A Neoprene
- B Terylene
- C Polythene
- D Polystyrene
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Terylene
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Neoprene have the weakest intermolecular forces as it is a elastomer. There are only few cross-links between the chains.
Terylene have strong intermolecular forces like dipole-dipole interaction. It is a fibre type of polymer.
Polyster and polythene are thermoplastic types of polymer. They have intermolecular forces, which are intermediate between those of elastomers and fibres.
