Chemistry Question on classification of polymers

The straight chain polymer is formed by

A

hydrolysis of (CH3)3SiCl(CH_3)_3 SiCl followed by condensation polymerisation

B

hydrolysis of CH3SiCl3CH_3SiCl_3 followed by condensation polymerisation

C

hydrolysis of (CH3)4Si( CH_3)_4 Si by addition polymerisation

D

hydrolysis of (CH3)2SiCl2(CH_3)_2SiCl_2 followed by condensation polymerisation

Answer

hydrolysis of (CH3)2SiCl2(CH_3)_2SiCl_2 followed by condensation polymerisation

Explanation

Solution

Straight chain silanes are silicon oils. These are more stable at high temperature than mineral oils and have less tendency to thicken at low temperature.
