(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether C2H6forms an addition or condensation polymer needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

A polymer is a long chain molecule made of large number of monomer units. The monomer is repeating units of a polymer that are linked to each other to produce a molecule of polymer.

These monomer units are linked to each other either through the formation of peptide linkage or glycosidic linkage or by removal of any moiety such as a water molecule.

Polyvinyl chloride, Bakelite and polystyrene are some of the example of polymers.

(b)
