Synthesis of Nylon

Click on the correct answer



1 A monomer is
a linked chain containing mainly carbon and hydrogen
the repeating unit in a polymer
a polymer containing only carbon
a molecule formed by linking two polymers together
nylon

2 A polymer is
a linked chain made up of many monomers
only able to link to other polymers
a plastic
a molecule that consists only of hydrogen and carbon
thousands of monomers

3 An organic reaction
has reactants and products
can occur only in the human body
involves carbon-containing compounds
takes places only on earth
does not involve reactants

4 The two reactants used to make nylon
are both inorganic compounds
are both organic compounds
are both considered monomers
are both polymers
reacted at room temperature

5 Hexamethylenediamine and sebacoyl chloride
are found in orange juice and are not harmful
are found in the final product nylon
are both monomers
are both organic compounds
are not found in nature at all

6 Nylon is
an example of a salt
an example of an organic compound
an example of a polymer
an example of a metal which can be stretched
stretchy

plexiglas
teflon
hexamethylenediamine
polyethylene
silk

8 Examples of natural polymers include
teflon
silk
