Given below are two statements : [2025]
Statement I : Wet cotton clothes made of cellulose-based carbohydrate takes comparatively longer time to get dried than wet nylon polymer-based clothes.
Statement II : Intermolecular hydrogen bonding with water molecule is more in nylon-based clothes than in the case of cotton clothes.
In the light of above statements, choose the Correct answer from the options given below
(2)
Cellulose has more number of OH bonds, hence more hydrogen bonding with water and takes more time to dry.
