Topic: JEE PYQ

Answer: C. Full step-by-step solution below.

  1. Ait does not become soft on heating under pressure
  2. Bit cannot be remoulded
  3. Cit is either linear or branched chain polymer
  4. Dit is cross-linked polymer.

Correct answer: C

Solution

(c): Thermoplastics are the polymers in which intermolecular forces of attraction are neither very strong nor very weak and there are no cross-links between the chains. These can be easily moulded by heating i.e., it gets soft on heating and becomes hard on cooling. It is either linear or branched chain polymer.
