What is polythene rod made of?
The polymer "polythene".
How does chemical inertness of polythene arise?
The chemical inertness of polythene (polyethylene) arises primarily from its molecular structure, which consists of long chains of carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms. This structure creates a stable, non-polar hydrocarbon compound that is resistant to many chemical reactions, especially with acids, bases, and solvents. Additionally, the strong carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds contribute to its durability and resistance to degradation. As a result, polythene is often used in applications where chemical resistance is essential.
Is polythene a compound an acid an element or a mixture?
Polythene or more correctly named polyethene is a compound of ethene that has undergone addition polymerisation. So yes, it is a compound. An acid is a compound that can donate protons (H+) A element is a 'pure' form that contains just the element it's self. They are all listed on the periodic table A compound is a substance made up of different elements that are all chemicaly bonded together. (By either ionic or covalent bonds) A mixture is a 'mix' of different compounds or elements that are not bonded together.
Does polythene dissolve in water?
No, polythene does not dissolve in water as it is a non-polar polymer and water is a polar solvent. This lack of attraction between the polythene molecules and water molecules prevents it from dissolving.
In what part of an atom are protrons and neutrons bonded tightly together?
nucleus
How do solid particles move?
They are tightly bonded together therefore they can only vibrate.

What is more flexible aluminium or polythene?
Polythene.
What is polythene rod made of?
The polymer "polythene".
Is polythene a chemical?
Polyethene (polythene, polyethylene) is a chemical product.
When was Polythene - album - created?
Polythene - album - was created in 1996.
Why do liquid and gases flow?
This is because on a molecular level, gases and liquids are unorganized. In solids, which do not flow, molecules are bonded together in organized, lattice structures.
Why does polythene have a negative charge with a cloth?
When polythene is rubbed with a cloth, electrons are transferred from the cloth to the polythene, causing the polythene to become negatively charged. This transfer of electrons creates an imbalance of charges between the two materials, resulting in the polythene having a negative charge.
What are the hazards of food served in polythene bags?
hazards of polythene bags
When polythene is rubbed with wool why does the polythene becomes negatively charged?
When polythene is rubbed with wool, electrons are transferred from the wool to the polythene due to differences in their electronegativities. The polythene gains extra electrons, making it negatively charged, while the wool becomes positively charged due to losing electrons.
Can polythene be used to make clothes?
Yes polythene can be used to make clothes
