question_answer 6)

Arrange the following polymers in increasing order of theirintermolecular forces. (i) Nylon-6, 6, buna-S, polythene. (ii) Nylon-6, neoprene, polyinyl chloride The order of intermolecular forces in different polymers is Easterners <plastics < fibres. So first classify the given polymer into the aboveclasses and then arrange them in increasing order of forces.  

Answer:

Increasing order of intermolecular forces of the polymersis as follows: (i) Buna-S < polythene < nylon-6,6. (ii) Neoprene < polyvinyl chloride < nylon-6.
