Nylon is an example of

  1. polyamide
  2. polythene
  3. polyester
  4. polysaccharide.

Answer

(1) polyamide

Solution

As per NCERT, nylons are polyamides: they contain amide linkages (-CO-NH-) in the chain.

e.g. nylon 6,6 is formed by condensation polymerisation of hexamethylenediamine with adipic acid:

nH2N(CH2)6NH2 + nHOOC(CH2)4COOH [-NH(CH2)6NH-CO(CH2)4CO-]n + 2nH2O
