Nylon 4.6 is:
Correct answer: B. Condensation polymer of hexandioic acid & 1,4 diaminobutane
- A. Addition polymer
- B. Condensation polymer of hexandioic acid & 1,4 diaminobutane
- C. It is an ester
- D. Condensation polymer
- E. It is a carboxylic acid
Explanation
The correct option is option B. Nylon 4,6 is a condensation polymer of hexanedioic acid (adipic acid) and 1,4-diamino butane. Therefore, the correct answer is option (b): Condensation polymer of hexanedioic acid and 1,4-diamino butane. Nylon 4,6 is a type of synthetic polymer that is formed through a condensation reaction between the carboxylic acid groups of hexanedioic acid and the amine groups of 1,4-diamino butane. This condensation reaction results in the formation of amide linkages, creating a long-chain polymer known as Nylon 4,6.

About Aldehydes and Ketones
Aldehydes and ketones contain the polar carbonyl group, but aldehydes are generally more readily oxidised and more reactive than ketones. Coverage includes preparation by oxidation or reduction routes, nucleophilic addition of reagents such as hydrogen cyanide and bisulfite, and tests that distinguish aldehydes from ketones.
