The polymer containing strong intermolecular forces e.g. hydrogen bonding, is:

  1. A
    teflon
  2. B
    nylon 6,6
  3. C
    polystyrene
  4. D
    natural rubber

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Nylon 6,6 is a polyamide. It contains amide linkages (). The hydrogen atom of the group in one polymer chain can form hydrogen bonds with the oxygen atom of the group in an adjacent chain, leading to high tensile strength and fiber-forming properties.
