Question

In comparing the progression of addition (chain-growth) and condensation (step-growth) polymerizations, which kinetic behavior distinguishes chain-growth?

Answer: C

💡 Solution & Explanation

In chain-growth polymerization, an active center rapidly adds monomers to form a long chain in a fraction of a second. Thus, high molecular weight species exist immediately, and monomer remains present throughout.
