Chemistry - Polymer Question with Solution | TestHub

Question Explanation:

The question asks which among the given polymers are condensation polymers.

Concept:

This question is based on polymerization, condensation polymer, addition polymer, natural and synthetic polymers.

Solution:

1. Starch → Condensation polymer. Formed by glycosidic linkage between glucose units with the elimination of water.

2. Cellulose → Condensation polymer. Formed by β-1,4-glycosidic linkages with elimination of water.

3. Teflon → Addition polymer. Formed by polymerization of tetrafluoroethylene via addition reaction.

4. Natural rubber → Addition polymer. Formed by polymerization of isoprene units via addition reaction.

Final Answer: Option (A) & (B)
