Which of the following cannot undergo addition polymerisation?(a) Ethane(b) Ethene(c) Propylene(d) Vinyl benzeneThis question was posed to me in a job interview.This key question is from Types of Polymerisation Reactions topic in chapter Polymers of Chemistry – Class 12

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) Ethane

Explanation: The MONOMERS involved in ADDITION polymerisation are unsaturated compounds like alkenes and alkadienes. This is because it does not involve the REMOVAL of any molecule and hence requires the breaking of a DOUBLE bond for it to progress.
