What else can I help you with?
Polymerization and the breakdown of a polymer are two opposite reactions What role does a water molecule play in both of them?
In polymerization, a water molecule is often eliminated as a byproduct in a condensation reaction between monomers. This process is known as dehydration synthesis. In the breakdown of a polymer via hydrolysis, water molecules are used to break the covalent bonds between monomers, resulting in the degradation of the polymer into its constituent monomer units.
How is one molecule of glucose formed?
Carbohydrate or Disaccharides, like fructose
How does fermantaion differ from respiration?
The amount if energy released from each sugar molecule during fermantation, however, is much lower than the amount released during respiration
Identify the type of energy that is stored in a molecule's bonds?
Chemical energy is stored in a molecule's bonds. This type of energy is released or absorbed during chemical reactions.
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).

When monomers combine to form a condensation polymer another product is also formed Typically this product is?
When monomers combine to form a condensation polymer, another product that is typically formed is a small molecule such as water, methanol, or hydrogen chloride. This byproduct is released during the polymerization process as the monomers link together to form the polymer chain.
What molecule is the oxygen released from?
Oxygen is released from the molecule water (H2O) during the process of photosynthesis in plants.
What is a a monomer?
Monomers can be defined as relatively small and simple molecules that bond together (during a polymerization reaction) to form a macromolecule called a polymer. Thus we can say that monomers are the units responsible for the formation of a polymer. A monomer is a molecule that can be bonded to other molecules to form polymers
During construction of vinyl lined pools what are the positives and negatives of galvanized steel vs polymer?
Galvanixed rust! We have been in the vinyl business over 25 years and have see it rust..BUT it is stronger that polymer..We have seen tree roots crack plastic walls..
What happens after dehydration synthesis occurs?
After dehydration synthesis, two molecules are linked together by the removal of a water molecule. This process forms a larger molecule, such as a polymer or macromolecule. It is an essential process in the formation of complex biological molecules like proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids.
What is polyelectrolyte?
A polymer that has several ionizable groups along the molecule, especially any of those used for coagulating and flocculating particles during water treatment or for making electrophoretic gels.
How many molecules of O2 are released for every CO2 molecule fixed by photosynthesis?
For every molecule of CO2 fixed during photosynthesis, one molecule of O2 is released. This process occurs during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis when water is split to release oxygen as a byproduct.
Why are polymerization reactions sometimes called dehydrates synthesis reactions?
because water is produced as a by-product!
From what molecule does oxygen get released during photosynthesis?
It is about H2O liquid. It releases the o2 gas.
How does fermantaion differ from respiration?
The amount if energy released from each sugar molecule during fermantation, however, is much lower than the amount released during respiration
