← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when hydrogen fluoride increases temperature heavily strained?
A)Stronger intermolecular hydrogen bond promotion
B)Decreased viscosity and ionic conduction
C)Polymer decomposition via chain scission✓
D)Increased strength intermolecular van der Waals
💡 Explanation
A rising temperate effects chain scission, a decomposition where covalent bonds break because the thermal energy overcomes bond energy, therefore polymer chains degrade rather than promoting hydrogen transfer because hydrogen bonding generally weakens at high temperatures.
