Question

An example of inorganic adhesive is ------------

a) casein

b) plexi glass

c) araldite

d) sodium silicate​

Answer 1

Answer:

d)sodium silicate is the correct answer

Answer 2

The correct example from the given options is option d: Sodium silicate.

• Adhesives are substances that can strongly bind two components or substances or objects which are quite dissimilar in their form.
• Adhesives that are inorganic are mainly prepared from non-carbon-containing compounds which usually include silicates, resins, and other non-carbon-containing compounds.

1. Sodium silicate is one of the inorganic-based adhesives because silicate has the capacity to lose water and become thick enough to bond substances like paper, wool of minerals, wood, etc.
2. Casein is an animal-derived example of adhesive.
3. Plexiglass is chemically carbon-based or organic adhesive.
4. Araldite is an epoxy-based synthetic type of adhesive.

• Hence, sodium silicate is the correct answer.
