What mean polymerise?

Polymers are chemical substances which are made up from smaller units, called monomers. The reaction of joining these monomers to form this larger unit is called polymerisation. (monomers polymerise into polymers). The subunits, or polymers, are typical of the chemical substances. For example, the monomers of proteins are amino acids, monomers of carbohydrates are monosaccharides, monomers of nucleic acids are nucleotides. The reaction itself, by what these monomers are joining together, is a dehydration or condensation reaction.


What is the term for the reaction that separates monomers?

Hydrolysis


What type of reaction monomers must undergo to form cellulose?

This reaction is called polymerization.


What type of reaction causes monomers to stick together?

This reaction is called polymerization.


What chemical reaction formed these large molecules joined the monomers?

This is a polymerization reaction.


What is the chemical reaction of monomers add to make polymer?

This reaction is called polymerization.


What is the name of the reaction when 2 monomers are split?

The reaction is called hydrolysis, where a water molecule is used to break the bond between the monomers, resulting in two separate molecules.


How does a polymer forms?

A polymer consists of repeated, linked units. The units may be identical or structurally related to each other. Monomers link to form polymers through a chemical reaction called a condensation reaction.


What chemical reaction formed these large molecules joined monomers?

This reaction is called polymerization.


When synthesizing a polymer a condensation reaction is formed by the joining of monomers?

Yes, in condensation polymerization, monomers react to form a polymer with the elimination of a small molecule such as water. This reaction continues until all the monomers have reacted or until a termination reaction stops the process.


What when combined forms polymer?

Polymers are formed from monomers.


Polymers of carbohydrates fats and proteins are all synthesized from monomers by which process?

Polymers of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are all synthesized from monomers through the process of dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. In this process, monomers are joined together by removing a water molecule, which forms a covalent bond between the monomers, resulting in the formation of a polymer.
