Identify the polymer given below :

Answers (1)

The polymer given is cis-polyisoprene (natural rubber) and has a coiled structure. It shows elastic properties as well.

When isoprene undergoes polymerization, it forms a long chain polymer. The polymerization process can be represented as:
n(isoprene)→cis-polyisoprene
where n is the number of isoprene units that combine to form the polymer.
