Vedclass · Answer

(B) An addition polymer is a polymer that forms by the simple linking of monomers without the co-generation of other products.$Glucose$ is the monomer of polysaccharides like starch and cellulose.$Polyethylene$ $(PE)$ is made by the reaction of multiple ethylene molecules in the presence of a catalyst to break the double bond and connect the carbon atoms into a chain without forming any by-products.$Ethylene$ is the monomer of $polyethylene$.$Terylene$ is a synthetic polyester fiber produced by polymerizing $ethylene 	ext{ } glycol$ and $terephthalic 	ext{ } acid$,which is obtained from petroleum with the removal of water. Hence,it is a condensation polymer. (Condensation polymers are formed through a condensation reaction,where molecules join together and lose small molecules as by-products such as water or methanol.)Therefore,$Polyethylene$ is an addition polymer.
