  1. A \(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{C}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{B}, \mathrm{E}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{C}, \mathrm{D}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{A}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mathrm{B}, \mathrm{E}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

From the polymer chain \( \mathrm{[-NH-CH_2-CH_2-NH-CO-(CH_2)_4-CO-]} \), the repeating unit consists of: A diamine: \( \mathrm{H_2N-(CH_2)_2-NH_2} \) which is compound C. A dicarboxylic acid: \( \mathrm{HOOC-(CH_2)_4-COOH} \) which is compound A. Thus, Y and Z are…
