Which consequence results when ethylene polymerization employs a Ziegler-Natta catalyst?

A)Increased polymer chain branching stability
B)Decreased reaction system overall pressure
C)Stereoregular polymer chain formation
D)Exothermic chain-scission thermal runaway

💡 Explanation

Stereoregular polymers arise due to heterogeneous catalysis controlling monomer addition in a specific orientation, leading to highly ordered chains because the Ziegler-Natta mechanism promotes tacticity; therefore, a stereoregular polymer forms, rather than atactic branching or uncontrolled reactions.
