Question diagram: Among cellulose, polyvinyl chloride, nylon and natural rubbe

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:


Due to -bonding, nylon has strong intermolecular attraction. Cellulose is a polyhydroxy compound, also capable of forming strong intermolecular -bonding. Polyvinyl chloride is a polar polymer due to carbon chlorine bond and it possess strong dipole-dipole attraction. Natural rubber is poly (isoprene), a hydrocarbon, possess weak van der Waal's attraction.
