What is the principal feature of a polycondensation?(a) Stable intermediate(b) Rate of condensation is independent(c) All of the mentioned(d) None of the mentionedThis question was posed to me in an internship interview.I want to ask this question from Methods of Polymerization topic in chapter Principles of Polymer Chemistry of Unit Processes

Answer»

Correct choice is (c) All of the mentioned

Best EXPLANATION: The principal feature of a polycondensation are: (1) that all the INTERMEDIATE SPECIES are STABLE molecules and (2) that the rate of condensation is independent of the DEGREE of polymerization, Le., the reactivity of the functional groups is independent of the molecular weight of the molecule to which it is attached.
