How many of the following is/are a condensation polymer ?

(A) Polystyrene

(B) Neoprene

(C) PAN

(D) Poly(ethylene terephthalate)

Answer:
1
Solution:

Question Explanation:

We need to identify how many of the given polymers are condensation polymers.

Concept:

This question is based on Condensation polymers, Addition polymers, Polymerization types Solution:

(A) Polystyrene → Formed by addition polymerization of styrene

(B) Neoprene → Formed by addition polymerization of chloroprene

(C) PAN (Polyacrylonitrile) → Formed by addition polymerization of acrylonitrile

(D) Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) → Formed by condensation polymerization of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid with elimination of water

Only PET is a condensation polymer.
