Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
Terylene, also known as Dacron, is a polyester.
It is prepared by the condensation polymerization of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid.
The IUPAC name of ethylene glycol is ethane-1,2-diol.
The IUPAC name of terephthalic acid is benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid.
Therefore, the monomers used to obtain terylene are ethane-1,2-diol and benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid.
Answer: Ethane-1,2-diol and Benzene-1, 4 dicarboxylic acid
