(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The polymer that belongs to polyethylene glycol is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The polymers that are generated by linking monomer unit in a simple way without any formation of side products are known as addition polymers.

Polyethylene glycol is used in a number of laxatives and excipients. It is also used as a binder, thickening agent and as a packaging additive for foods.
