Assertion (A) Polyamides are best used fas fibres because of high tensile strength.
Reason (R ) Strong intermolecular foces (like hydrogen bonding within polyamides) lead to close packing of chains and increase the crystalline character hence , provide high tensile strength to polymers

Consider the Assertion and Reason given below. Assertion (A) : Ethene polymerized in the presence of Ziegler Natta Catalyst at high temperature and pressure is used to make buckets and dustbins. Reason (R) : High density polymers are closely packed and are chemically inert. Choose the correct answer from the following :

Alkali &alkaline earth metals have low ionisation enthalpies and hence exhibit characteristic flame colouration. They have high negative electrode potentials & hence are strong reducing agents. It dissolve in liquid ammonia to give a solution which conducts electricity and act as strong reducing agent. being stronger reducing agent than hydrogen, they are usually prepared by the electrolysis of their fused chlorides. Their oxides are basic and the basic strength increases down the group. The solubility of carbonates and sulphates of alkali and alkaline earth metals show opposite trends. only the carbonates of Li and alkaline earth metals decompose on heating. The bicarbonates of both alkali & alkaline earth metals on heating give carbonates. Which of the following process is used in the extractive metallurgy of sodium?
