Solution

The correct option is C Tetrafluoroethene
Teflon is used in the making of non- stick coating of cookware. These polymers are formed when small ethene monomers combine together at high temperature and pressure in presence of catalysts. The reaction takes place as follows:

$^{n} C F_{2} = C F_{2} Tetrafluoroethene High Temperature - ------------- \to High Pressure, Catalyst {[C F_{2} - C F_{2}]}_{n} Teflon$
