Is a natural rubber more elastic than a synthetic rubber?
Yes, natural rubber is generally more elastic than synthetic rubber due to its molecular structure, which allows it to stretch and return to its original shape more easily. Synthetic rubbers may have other desirable properties, such as chemical resistance or durability, but they often have less elasticity compared to natural rubber.
What best describes synthetic rubber?
Synthetic rubber is a man-made material that functions like natural rubber. Synthetic rubber is made with petroleum, which gives it multiple advantages over natural rubber.

Is natural rubber is a protein?
No nitrile rubber is a synthetic rubber polymer
What are natural and synthetic polymers?
A natural polymer would be rubber which is obtained from nature. A synthetic polymer would be polybutadiene which behaves like rubber.
What statement best describes synthetic rubber?
