Polymers — practice question

Which row correctly pairs the monomer with the polymer chain?

  • Amonomer $\text{CH}_3\text{CH} = \text{CHCH}_3$; polymer segment $-\text{CH} (\text{CH}_3)-\text{CH} (\text{CH}_3)-\text{CH} (\text{CH}_3)-\text{CH} (\text{CH}_3)-$
  • Bmonomer $\text{CH}_2 = \text{CHCl}$; polymer segment $-\text{CHCl}-\text{CHCl}-\text{CHCl}-\text{CHCl}-$
  • Cmonomer $\text{CH}_3\text{CH} = \text{CH}_2$; polymer segment $-\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_2-$
  • Dmonomer $\text{CH}_2 = \text{CHCH}_2\text{CH}_3$; polymer segment $-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH} (\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3)-$
