Polymers

Question 9 • AZ-Physical Science A-CR

Which issue is a limitation of using synthetic polymers? Check all that apply.As trash, synthetic polymers are not biodegradable.Landfills can easily fill up with synthetic polymers.Plastics can be made into many different products.Recycling synthetic polymers is costly.Synthetic polymer production is not expensive.Synthetic polymers can be produced in big quantities.

Answer
A
As trash, synthetic polymers are not biodegradable.
B
Landfills can easily fill up with synthetic polymers.
C
Plastics can be made into many different products.
D
Recycling synthetic polymers is costly.
E
Synthetic polymer production is not expensive.
F
Synthetic polymers can be produced in big quantities.

Explanation

Synthetic polymers are often nonbiodegradable, so they persist as trash and can accumulate in landfills. Recycling them can also be costly, making that a limitation. Their versatility, low production cost, and ability to be produced in large quantities are generally advantages, not limitations.
