$(CH_3)_3SiCl$ is used during the polymerization of organosilicon compounds because:

Question

The chain length of organosilicon polymers can be controlled by adding $(CH_3)_3SiCl$

$(CH_3)_3SiCl$ does not block the terminal end of the silicone polymer

$(CH_3)_3SiCl$ helps in cross-linking polymer chains

$(CH_3)_3SiCl$ acts as a catalyst during polymerization
