    Answer:

                    Nylon-6 means that it is a condensation polymer of only one type of monomer molecules containing six carbon atoms, i.e., caprolactam. Nylon-6, 6, on the other hand, implies that it is a condensation polymer of two types of monomer molecules each containing six carbon atoms, i.e., adipic acid\[(HOOCC{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}COOH)\] and hexamethylenediamine \[({{H}_{2}}NC{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}N{{H}_{2}}).\]
