- Polymers can be classified based on the source of availability, structure, molecular forces and the mode of synthesis
Correct
Polymers consists of large number of monomer units derived from simple molecules. For example: PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride). is a polymer which is obtained from the monomer vinyl chloride. Polymers can be classified based on the source of availability, structure, molecular forces and the mode of synthesis.

Question 48 of 56
48. Question
Which of the following statement is correct?
- The process of forming a very large, high molecular mass polymer from small structural units i.e., monomer is called polymerisation
- Addition polymerisation is also known as chain growth polymerisation
Correct
The process of forming a very large, high molecular mass polymer from small structural units i.e., monomer is called polymerisation. Polymerisation occurs in the following two ways
- Addition polymerisation or chain growth polymerisation
- Condensation polymerisation or step growth polymerisation

Question 50 of 56
50. Question
Which of the following statement is correct?
- Condensation polymers are formed by the reaction between functional groups an adjacent monomer with the elimination of simple molecules like H2O, NH3
- Nylon – 6,6 can be prepared by mixing equimolar adipic acid and hexamethylene – diamine to form a nylon salt
Correct
Condensation polymers are formed by the reaction between functional groups an adjacent monomers with the elimination of simple molecules like H2O, NH3. Nylon – 6,6 can be prepared by mixing equimolar adipic acid and hexamethylene – diamine to form a nylon salt which on heating eliminate a water molecule to form amide bonds.

Question 52 of 56
52. Question
Which of the following statement is correct?
- Charles Good found that the rubber had become strong and elastic when he accidently dropped a mixture of natural rubber and sulphur onto a hot stove
- This discovery led to the process that Good year called vulcanization.
Correct
In the year 1839, Charles Good year accidently dropped a mixture of natural rubber and sulphur onto a hot stove. He was surprised to find that the rubber had become strong and elastic. This discovery led to the process that Good year called vulcanization.

Question 54 of 56
54. Question
Which of the following statement is correct?
- The materials that are readily decomposed by microorganisms in the environment are called biodegradable.
- Natural polymers degrade on their own after certain period of time but the synthetic polymers do not
Correct
The materials that are readily decomposed by microorganisms in the environment are called biodegradable. Natural polymers degrade on their own after certain period of time but the synthetic polymers do not. It leads to serious environmental pollution.

Question 56 of 56
56. Question
Which of the following statement is correct?
- In all living systems, the biochemical reactions are catalysed by enzymes
- These enzyme actions are highly essential for the normal functioning of the system
- If their normal enzyme activity is inhibited, then the system may be affected
Correct
In all living systems, the biochemical reactions are catalysed by enzymes. Hence, these enzyme actions are highly essential for the normal functioning of the system. If their normal enzyme activity is inhibited, then the system will be affected. This principle is usually applied to kill many pathogens.
