Pickout the wrong statement.
Polymers made of only one monomer is called homopolymer.
Polymers made of more than one monomer is called copolymer or mixed polymer.
Vulcanised rubber is more elastic than natural rubber.
The intermoleculer forces in ther-mosplastic polymers are intermediate to that of elastomers & fibres.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
No answer description is available. Let's discuss.

If only one monomer is used for polymerization then it is not a homopolymer.

A homopolymer is made of the same types of polymer.

So (A) is right.

How come option A?

The correct one is C, right?

Vulcanised rubber don't possess any elasticity, right?

If a polymer consists of only one kind of monomers then it is called a homopolymer, while a polymer which consists of more than one kind of monomers is called a copolymer.
