Arrange the following polymers in the increasing order of their intermolecular forces : polystyrene, terylene, Buna-S

Explanation

Buta-S is an elastomer, terylene is a fibre and polystyrene is a thermoplastic polymer. Strength of intermolecular forces in these types of polymers follow the order: elastomer lt thermoplastic polymer lt fibre. Therefore, intemolecular forces of the given polymers will follow the order : Buna-S lt polystyrene lt terylene.
