Polymer 'Y':

  1. i. is made from propene
  2. ii. is a condensation polymer
  3. iii. is stronger and lighter than polythene

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a i and ii
  2. b ii and iii
  3. c i and iii
  4. d i, ii and iii
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: c i and iii

Y is polypropylene: made from propene and stronger and lighter than polythene; it is an addition polymer.

Why the other options are wrong

  • a i and ii: ii is wrong: Y is polypropylene, an addition polymer; the answer is i and iii.
  • b ii and iii: ii is wrong and i is left out: polypropylene is made from propene; the answer is i and iii.
  • d i, ii and iii: ii is wrong: propene molecules join directly with nothing small removed; so not all three.
