Solution

A. Monomers in given polymer

The name of the given polymer is nylon $6, 6$

This polymer is formed when adipic acid $[H O O C - (C H_{2})_{4} - C O O H]$ and Hexamethylenediamine
$[H_{2} N - (C H_{2})_{6} - N H_{2}]$ combined and a water molecule is removed.
So, adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine are the monomers here.

B. Monomers in given polymer

The name of the given polymer is nylon 6.

It is obtained by heating caprolactam with water at a high temperature.

so,caprolactam is the monomer here.

The reaction can be given as-

C. Monomers in given polymer

The name of the given polymer is ''polytetrafluoroethene or teflon".

The monomer present here is
"Tetrafluoroethene" $(C F_{2} = C F_{2})$ , here the double bond between carbon atoms break to form the polymeric chain.

The reaction can be given as-
