The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the following is a nitrogen-containing polymer, we will analyze the structures of the given polymers one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the First Polymer: Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)** - The structure of PVC consists of repeating units of vinyl chloride, which is represented as: \[ \text{-(CH}_2\text{-CHCl)-} \] - This structure contains carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and chlorine (Cl) but does not contain nitrogen (N). - **Conclusion**: PVC is not a nitrogen-containing polymer. 2. **Identify the Second Polymer: Bakelite** - Bakelite is a phenolic resin, and its structure can be represented as: \[ \text{(C}_6\text{H}_5\text{)C(OH)CH}_2\text{(OH)C(OH)CH}_2\text{(OH)} \] - This structure contains carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O) but does not contain nitrogen (N). - **Conclusion**: Bakelite is not a nitrogen-containing polymer. 3. **Identify the Third Polymer: Nylon 6-6** - Nylon 6-6 is a type of polyamide, and its structure can be represented as: \[ \text{-(NH-CH}_2\text{-CO-)}_n \] - In this structure, we can see that nitrogen (N) is present in the amide linkages. - **Conclusion**: Nylon 6-6 is a nitrogen-containing polymer. 4. **Identify the Fourth Polymer: Terylene (Dacron)** - Terylene is a polyester, and its structure can be represented as: \[ \text{-(C}_6\text{H}_4\text{COO-CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{O-)}_n \] - This structure contains carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O) but does not contain nitrogen (N). - **Conclusion**: Terylene is not a nitrogen-containing polymer. ### Final Answer: The nitrogen-containing polymer among the options is **Nylon 6-6**. ---
