    Direction for: In each of the following questions a statement of Assertion is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason just below it. Of the statements mark the correct answer as

    Assertion: 1, 3-butadiene is the monomer for natural rubber. Reason: Natural rubber is formed through anionic addition polymerization.

    A)  If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

    B)  If both assertion and reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

    C)  If assertion is true statement but reason is false.

    D)  If both assertion and reason are false.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    1, 3-butadiene is the monomer unit of styrene-butadiene rubber or Buna-S, for natural rubber monomer unit is isoprene. Ethylene, acrylic acid derivatives, vinyl derivatives, styrene, butadiene, isoprene and chloropene are the examples of monomers which undergo polymerisation by free radical addition polymer. Examples of anionic addition polymerisation is vinylidene cyanide, vinylidene ester derivatives of acrylonitrile, a-methyl styrene, etc.
