Given th polymers,
`A =` Nylon-6,6, `B=` Buna-`S`, `C =` Polythene
Arrange these in decreasing order of their intermolecular forces:

A

(i)gt(ii) gt(iii)

B

(ii)gt(iii)gt(i)

C

(ii) lt(iii)lt(i)

D

(iii)lt(i)lt(ii)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Nylon - 6,6 is a fibre with hydrogen bonds thus have strongest intermolecular forces. Buna-S is a elastomer whereas polythene is thermoplastic, the intermolecular forces of attraction in thermoplastics is intermediate between elastomer and fibres. Therefore forces in elastomers are weakest.
