Question. A natural linear polymer of 2-methyl-1, 3-butadiene becomes hard on treatment with sulphur between 373 K and 415 K and —S—S— bonds are formed between chains. Write the structure of the product of this treatment?
Answer. Vulcanised rubber is the product of this treatment.
It can be represented through the following reaction shown as structure :

Question. (i) To have practical applications, why are cross links required in rubber?
(ii) Why does cis-polyisoprene possess elastic property?
Answer. (i) Cross links bind the planar polymer sheets thus increasing its elastomeric properties which helps the polymer to retract to its original position after the force is released. This makes the rubber hard, tough and highly elastic with greater tensile strength.
(ii) Cis-polyisoprene molecule consists of multiple chains held together by van der Waals interactions and has a coiled structure. Thus, it can be stretched like a spring and shows elastic properties.
