Solution

The correct option is B
B

Butadiene polymer is formed by a chain reaction involving free radical intermediates. It is a chain growth polymer involving addition polymerization.

Buna - S is also formed by copolymerization of butadiene and styrene gives Buna - S

But these two statements have no relation with each other.

So the option is B
