That depends what the monomer is. Most unsaturated monomers are manufactured commercially from crude oil. Ethene, for instance, is made by cracking the gas oil fraction of crude oil. Vinyl chloride is then made from ethene. Styrene is made from benzene and ethene.

What does the term monomer refer to?
A monomer is a molecule that can bond to other monomer molecules to form polymers.
What feature of the monomer molecules makes them unsaturated?
Unsaturated lipids will contain a number of double bonds. If a carbon is double bonded to one hydrogen, it's valence electrons are satisfied. So instead of holding on to two hydrogens, it has just one. These double bonds cause "unsaturation".
What monomer is most likely to form an addition polymer?
An unsaturated hydrocarbon, such as propene (novanet)
Do a monomer or polymer contain more molecules?
a monomer Polymers are composed of monomers.
The individual molecules that make up polymers are called?
The smaller molecules that make up polymers are called monomers.
Glycerol is one of two molecules that make up a monomer known as?
Triglycerides

What is a molecule that may bind chemically to other molecules to form a polymer?
That would be a monomer.
What types of bond butene contain?
Butene is an unsaturated hydrocarbon molecule and therefore contains a Carbon-Carbon double bond.The molecule can be used as a monomer and through additional polymerisation multiple molecules can be combined to result in polybutene.
Polyethylene is a polymer made from ethane molecules that have been joined together. What is ethane in this polymer?
The monomer
What Molecules that are made of smaller molecules called amino acids are called?
monomer

Is albumin a monomer?
No, albumin is not considered a type of monomer. It is considered a type of polymer made of many molecules.
