Answer #1

There are 2 types of polymerisation:

Addition

Condensation.

Addition polymerisation : in this process two monomer units simply add up to form polymers.

hence the correct answer is E

Condensation : in this type of polymerisation 2 monomers react to give polymerisation with elimination of a small molecule


hexamethylene+adipic acid--> nylon+water

Use of Nylon 6:
(i)It is used in making sheets, bristles for brushes and in textile industry.
(ii) It is obtained by heating caprolactum with water at
a high temperature.

Question Number II Ethanol (EtOH) can be produced by the hydration of ethylene, C2H4 + H2O ⇔ C2H5OH, at 300°C and high pressure with a phosphoric acid catalyst. Downstream of the reactor, a condenser is used to separate the product, which contains only EtOH and H2O, from a recycle stream that mixes with the fresh feed before entering the reactor. The fresh feed contains 30 mol% C2H4 and the remainder is steam. The single pass conversion is 20%. a. Draw...
