1.Which of following adhesive is used to bond broken pieces of jewelry? (SIBA MDCAT 2025)
- Super glue
- Epoxy resin
- Silicon resin
- Starch
Show answer
Correct answer: (a) Super glue
Cyanoacrylate super glue sets in seconds on a thin joint, which suits broken jewellery.
2.Poly vinyl chloride (PVC) is the type of? (UHS MDCAT 2025)
- Homopolymer
- Thermosetting polymer
- Thermoplastic polymer
- Copolymor
Show answer
Correct answer: (a) Homopolymer
PVC is built from one monomer, vinyl chloride, so it is a homopolymer.
3.Which one is addition polymer? (SIBA MDCAT 2025)
- polyvinyl chloride
- nylon 6,6
- nylon 6,10
- polyester
Show answer
Correct answer: (a) polyvinyl chloride
Poly(vinyl chloride) is made by adding monomers with nothing eliminated; the nylons and polyesters are condensation polymers.
4.Bakelite is formed upon polymerization of: (NUMS MDCAT 2024)
- Phenol + HCHO dilute base
- Phenol + NaOH H2O
- Phenol + H2SO4 H2O
- Phenol + CH3-C(=O)-Cl H2SO4
Show answer
Correct answer: (a) Phenol + HCHO dilute base
Bakelite is the condensation polymer of phenol with formaldehyde.
