What is the comparison in a polymer and a monomer?
Linking bonds, most often dehydration reactions, where atoms/molecules are removed from certain ends of the monomers, forming an H2O molecule (water) and the monomers then join up. However, that is a general formula.
What type of reaction connect monomers and what occurs during said reaction?
Monomers are connected together to build a relatively complex (macro) molecule by polymerization reaction. Lets say proteins (polymer) for example are made by peptide bonds connected with "n" number of amino acids (monomers).
What is involved in the inter-chain linkage between complementary strands of DNA?
Hydrogen bonding is involved in linking both strands together .
What chemical reaction forms cellulose?
Cellulose is the polymer of Glucose the polymerization of is through DEHYDRATION reaction among Glucose molecules.
What is valcanising?
Vulcanization is the process by which rubber molecules (polymers or macromolecules made of repeating units or monomers called isoprene) are cross-linked with each other by heating the liquid rubber with sulfur. Cross-linking increases the elasticity and the strength of rubber by about ten-fold, but the amount of cross-linking must be controlled to avoid creating a brittle and inelastic substance.
What one gets when linking many monomers?
polymer.
Molecules formed by linking two or more monomers are?
polymers
What attaches monomers to each other?
A polymer can be made up of thousands of monomer.This linking up of monomers is called polymerization

What is the process in which alkene monomers join to form chains?
Addition polymerization which forms only polymer as the single product

Is gluose an example of a polymer?
Yes. Think of beads on necklace chain; the beads (monomers) may be all the same .or may be different. It's the linking that makes it a "polymer"( many pieces ).

Cellulose is the polymer of Glucose the polymerization of is through DEHYDRATION reaction among Glucose molecules.
How polymer become a polymer?
Polymer means many monomers. Sometimes polymers are also known as macromolecules or large-sized molecules. Usually, polymers are organic (but not necessarily).A monomer is a molecule that is able to bond in long chains.Here is a monomer:Here is a polymer:A polymer can be made up of thousands of monomer.This linking up of monomers is called polymerization

Combining a molecule of glucose with a molecule of fructose to make a larger molecule of sucrose is an example of?
I hope this is what you are looking for! When you combine two monomers (an individual building block, e.g. a molecule of fructose) to make a polymer (the linked chain made of the monomers) you go through a process called dehydration reaction, or dehydration synthesis. In dehydration synthesis one molecule of water is taken out from the monomers which combines them together. An unlinked monomer (e.g. the molecule of fructose and glucose) will have a hydroxyl group at one end (-OH) and a hydrogen atom at the other end (-H). When you take out the water (H20) you form a covalent bond between the end of one monomer, and the beginning of the next - linking the two monomers
