    Natural rubber is a polymer of

    A) styrene

    B) chloroprene

    C) \[C{{H}_{2}}=\underset{C{{H}_{3}}}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-CH=C{{H}_{2}}\]or isoprene

    D) 1, 3-butadiene

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    The commercial natural rubber is obtained from the tree Hevea brasiliensis. Natural rubber is found to be a polymer of cis-isoprene. \[C{{H}_{2}}=\underset{C{{H}_{3}}}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,CH=C{{H}_{2}}\] Hence, it is a polymer of cis-isoprene.
