(i) In polymerisation of ethene, the source of free radical is needed to initiate the chain reaction. Such free radicals are usually produced by the decomposition of peroxides like t- butyl peroxide or benzoyl peroxide.
(ii)The given polymer is nylon 6, 6.
Monomers of nylon 6,6 are adipic acid (HOOC(CH2)4COOH)and hexamethylenediamine (H2N(CH2)6NH2).
(iii)Elastomers of rubbers have the weakest intermolecular forces of attraction, while fibres have the strongest intermolecular forces of attraction. Plastics have intermediate forces of attraction.
The increasing order of intermolecular forces of attraction of the given polymers is as follows:
Terylene> Polystyrene > Buna-S
Or
The mechanism of free radical polymerization of ethene.

Tert- butyl peroxide is used as free radical generating initiator or simply as a catalyst during the polymerisation of ethene.
