Choose an option
Show full solutionCorrect option: B
Correct answer
BHOOC(CH2)4COOH, H2N(CH2)6NH2
Step-by-step explanation
Nylon 6, 6 is an amide polymer.
Amide polymer is created using the monomer of amine and acid.
Nylon 6, 6 is created using 6 carbon amine and 6 carbon acid.
So, the amine is,
H2N (CH2)6 NH2
and the acid is,
HOOC(CH2)4COOH
Amide polymer is created using the monomer of amine and acid.
Nylon 6, 6 is created using 6 carbon amine and 6 carbon acid.
So, the amine is,
H2N (CH2)6 NH2
and the acid is,
