What is condensation polymerisation?

Condensation polymerisation is when two molecules of the same substance (monomer) react together to form polymer chain (like polythene) and eliminate a smaller (usually water) molecule. For example, Nylon-6 is prepared by using condensation polymerisation of ε-Caprolactum


Why is changing dodecane into smaller molecules useful?

because hydrogen molecules react with oxygen molecules which creates carbon dioxide which isn't good for the environment.


Where are molecules of chlorine brought together with ozone at the poles?

The molecules of chlorine are brought by CFC's. They are harmful chemicals with react with ozone to deplete it.


Does dehydration synthesis build or break down molecuels?

Build. Dehydration is a condensation reaction - monomers (small molecules) react together to form larger molecules (polymers) - and water is eliminated when they link together.


What happens when you put two molecules together?

It totally depends on the molecules. They may react to form new molecule(s) or not react at all. p.s if its 2 molecules or Chuck Norris's Blood then s*** goes boom, world implodes and the universe and everything else ends :3


What are the molecules that react with one another called?

Molecules that react with one another are called reactants.


Before two molecules can react chemists envision that the molecules must first collide with one another Is collision among molecules the only consideration for the molecules to react with each other?

Molecules must consider temperature and concentration when considering to react with one another.


What will happen if molecules will bump into each other?

It depends on a variety of factors. Firstly, it depends on which molecules are bumping into eachother. Depending on what they are, a reaction might occur, such as the bonding of the two molecules. If it is possible that these two molecules react together, whether they bond or not depends on two factors: firstly, their energy and secondly, their orientation. They need to have enough energy (called the activation energy) and need to be in the right position, otherwise they won't react. If molecules bump into eachother and don't react, they will bounce off eachother.


When hydrogen and oxygen react to form water what happens to the atoms of the hydrogen and oxygen?

They chemically bond together t form molecules of H2O.


Which molecules are affecting ozone layer?

The CFC molecules affect ozone layer. These molecules react with ozone to deplete it.


Under what circumstances do the colliding molecules not react?

the molecules are not in position to form bonds


What is it called when two identical molecules react to form two charged molecules?

autoionization
