What else can I help you with?
Polyethylene is a polymer made from ethane molecules that have been joined together. What is ethane in this polymer?
The monomer
What common molecule is formed when monosaccharid molecules are joined?
double sugars. glucose is a monomer.
what simple molecule that can be linked by chemical bonds to form a larger molecule?
A monomer is a fairly simple molecule that can be joined by covalent bonds to form larger molecules called polymers. Two monomers constitute a dimer. Three constitute a trimer. And, beyond that, it is just called a polymer.
Polyethylene is a polymer made from ethane molecules that have been joined together what is ethane in this polymer?
In polyethylene, ethane molecules are converted into ethylene molecules through a process called cracking. Ethylene molecules are then polymerized to form the long chains of polyethylene. Ethane serves as the starting material for the production of ethylene, which is the building block of polyethylene.
Small unit that can join together with other small units to form a polymer?
Monomers are joined together to form polymers, for example, proteins are a polymer, it's monomer is amino acids, and they are linked by peptide bonds to form a protein
Is polymer chains made of large molecules?
This is a valid statement, however it requires a little mind bending. Large organic molecules essentially are linked polymers to create a monomer. However, traditionally monomers are considered to be molecules that link easily in a chain and polymers are the chain, so in that way, this statement could be considered incorrect.
What is a group of molecules joined together?
You think probable to a polymer.
What is dipeptide monomer?
Dipeptide is two classes of organic matter. It is one molecule that has two amino acids that are joined by a single peptide bond.
What is a large covalently-bonded molecule that has a repeated structural unit?
A polymer is a large covalently bonded molecule that has a repeated structural unit. Examples of polymers include proteins, DNA, and synthetic plastics like polyethylene.
Explain the connection between monomers and polymers?
Monomers are single units while polymers are monomers linked together. So with polysaccharides being polymers or monomers linked together, then think of a single monomer of sugar such as maltose.
Macromolecule formed when monomers are joined together?
A polymer is formed when monomers are joined together through chemical bonds. Polymeric macromolecules can have a wide range of functions and properties depending on the specific monomer units and how they are linked. Examples of polymers in nature include proteins, DNA, and carbohydrates.
What is a group of atoms that are joined together by chemical bonds?
Molecule
