Polythene is best classified as an:
AInorganic polymer of a silicon backbone for industry
BAddition polymer of ethene monomers via C=C linkage
CCondensation polymer of ethanol with ethane backbone
DNatural polymer found in the bark of certain Kerala trees
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Addition polymer of ethene monomers via C=C linkage
Polythene is formed by addition polymerisation of ethene (CH$_2$=CH$_2$) into (CH$_2$CH$_2$)$_n$.
