<u>Answer:</u>

<em>B. Cotton</em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

A polymer is a macro molecule or gaint molecule which is formed as a chain from  many small molecules(which is called as a monomer).

Polymer is a repeating unit of many monomers.

For example  

Ethylene or ethane formula is C2H4.

Many ethane molecules under particular temperature and pressure conditions undergo the polymerization process to form polyethene. During this process the double bond breaks and becomes single bond and produces a long chain which we call it as a polymer.

The repeating unit of Cotton polymer is called as Cellubiose which is made up of 2 glucose units.

The number of units which forms the polymer (degree of polymerization) is about 5000 cellubiose units.

The image shows the representation of an unknown element in the periodic table.
Mademuasel [1]

Answer is: The sum of the masses of protons and neutrons is 20.1797.

This element (neon) has atomic number (Z) 10, which means it has 10 protons and 10 electrons.

Atomic number (Z) is the number of protons, which is characteristic of a chemical element.

Atomic mass (A) is 20.1797.

Ar is relative atomic mass (the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element to one unified atomic mass unit) of an element .
