Question

Nylon-5,10 can be prepared by:
A. ${H_2}N{(C{H_2})_5}N{H_2} + Decanoic\,acid(Sebacic\,acid)$
B. $HOOC{(C{H_2})_3}COOH + {H_2}N{(C{H_2})_{10}}N{H_2}$
C. ${H_2}N{(C{H_2})_6}N{H_2} + HOOC{(C{H_2})_8}COOH$
D. ${H_2}N{(C{H_2})_{10}}N{H_2} + HOOC{(C{H_2})_4}COOH$

Answer 1

Hint : In order to answer the question, first we have to study the Nylon family, then we should know the composition of the given compound. The all nylon compounds are polymers. 5, 10 indicates the number of carbon present in the chain.

Complete Step By Step Answer:
Nylon-5,10 is made from penta methylene diamine and Sebacic acid as per the reaction:
$HOOC{(C{H_2})_8}COOH(sebacic\,acid) + {H_2}N{(C{H_2})_5}N{H_2}(pentamethylenedia\min e) \to {[CO{(C{H_2})_8}CO - HN{(C{H_2})_5}NH]_{n\,}}\,(Nylon - 5,10$
Sebacic acid is a normally happening dicarboxylic acid with the equation ${(C{H_2})_8}{(C{O_2}H)_2}$ . It is a white chip or powdered strong. Sebacic corrosive is typically produced using castor oil, which is basically glyceryl ricinoleate.
The other name of Pentamethylenediamine is Cadaverine, which is a foul-smelling diamine compound which is produced by the putrefaction of animal tissue.
It is a toxic diamine having the formula $N{H_2}{(C{H_2})_5}N{H_2}$ .
So, Nylon-5,10 is the mixture of Sebacic acid and a diamine compound named Pentamethylenediamine ( Cadaverine). The structure of nylon 5,10 has been determined by using electron microscopy and X‐ray diffraction. Nylon 5,10 shows polymorphism with two different structures related to the γ form obtained by either solution or melt crystallization. Pressing contrasts might be ascribed to an adjustment in the hydrogen holding framework.
Hence, the correct option is A. ${H_2}N{(C{H_2})_5}N{H_2} + Decanoic\,acid(Sebacic\,acid)$ .

Note :
Nylon-5,10 is the compound of Nylon, which is a polymer, a plastic with very-long and heavy molecules built up of short, endlessly repeating parts of atoms. The different kinds of nylon have different chemical properties.
