Question

Among the following substituted silanes, the one which will give rise to cross-linked silicone polymer on hydrolysis is:

• A. $R_{3}SiCl$
• B. $R_{4}Si$
• C. $RSiC{l}_3$
• D. $R_{2}SiC{l}_2$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$RSiC{l}_3$

This is more of a factual statement here.

Hydrolysis of $RSiC{l}_3$ gives a cross-linked chain system.
