Assertion (A): Low density polyethylene is made at very high pressure while the high density grade is not.
Reason (R): The free radical process that produces the branching requires those conditions.

  • A.A is true but R is false
  • B.A is false but R is true
  • C.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • D.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A

Answer: C

Both are true and the reason gives the connection: Ziegler Natta and metallocene catalysts make linear chains at modest pressure, which is why the two grades come from quite different plants. Pressures above a thousand bar are used in the older route.
