A single unit of a large carbon based molecule?
Big
Giant organic molecule made of small molecules linked together?
No, it is one molecule.However some large organic molecules (i.e. polymers) are formed from small organic molecules (i.e. monomers) that bond together into long chains, forming one new large molecule. The small molecules no longer exist as individual molecules after bonding into the large molecule.
Which biological molecule contains a large amount of the element nitrogen?
Proteins
What moves faster large molecules or small molecules?
given the same amount of kinetic energy a smaller molecule would have a high velocity according to k=mv^2
A very large organic molecule made up of chains of smaller molecules is called?
condensation

What is a large carbon molecule that is built from smaller simpler molecules?
Polysaccharides
What is the important functional group?
Functional groups help to determine how the molecule reacts. For instance, if a carbon chain has a large number of methyl groups, then you would know that the molecule would be hydrophobic and found in a hydrophobic environment. On the other hand, if a carbon chain had a carboxyl group, then it would be found in a hydrophilic environment and would make the solution acidic. In addition to determine what kind of solutions they would be found in, functional groups indicate what the molecule will react with and what it will bind to.
What are hydrocarbons. Give two examples?
Hydrocarbons are any chemical composed only of carbon and hydrogen.methane - this is the simplest hydrocarbon, having only one carbon atom per moleculeethanepropanebutanecyclohexanegasoline (without additives)diesel oil (without additives)keroseneparaffinnaphthalenepolyethylenepolypropylenepolystyreneasphalthydrogenated carbon nanotubes - these are very very large hydrocarbons, having thousands of carbon atoms per molecule in many casesetc.
What is the definition for organ?
A large molecule that contain carbon-hydrogen bonds and are found in living things
What is the definition for organize?
A large molecule that contain carbon-hydrogen bonds and are found in living things
Large molecules made of carbon and hydrogen atoms?
This type of molecule is called macromolecule.
Is graphite a simple molecule?
Graphite is not a simple molecule. This substance consists of indefinitely large sheets of carbon atoms held together by weak interactions
Why is canola oil a non electrolyte?
Most animal and vegetable oils are triglycerides -- a very large molecule made of a glycerin backbone (a 3-carbon chain molecule) with three long-chain fatty acids attached to it. Typical, the long-chain fatty acids will have 16 or 18 carbons hooked together in a chain. Throughout that entire trygliceride, there is not one ionic bond. Oils do not dissolve in water, they just layer out on top, and they don't have ions that dissociate in water to make them an electrolyte.
What is a very large molecule made of carbon oxygen hydrogen nitrogen and phosphorus?
It's Nucleic Acid
What is the definition for 'organic macromolecule'?
A large molecule that contain carbon-hydrogen bonds and are found in living things
Is diamond a atom or a molecule?
Diamond is made up of pure carbon. Here one carbon atom is attached to other four carbon atoms. So diamond should be called as molecule. Should be! If it is called as molecule, then it will be too large a molecule. It will be interesting to count the number of atoms in a big diamond. It will not be possible for the human brain to understand such a very high number.
