Do monomers make up macromolecules?
If the macromolecule is a polymer, then yes it is made of monomers. There can be some irregular macromolecules that are not polymers and thus are not made of monomers, but they are special cases (e.g. carbon nanotubes with attached side groups).
Organic compounds contain the element?
carbon
Does carbon contain acid groups?
Carbon is an element, and doesn't contain anything but carbon. An acid-group is comprised from carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
Is DNA a example of a compound?
a nucleic acid. Deoxyribonucleic Acid = DNA DNA is a type of carbon-compound known as a nucleic acid. It is a polymer, made up of many monomers called nucleotides. Each nucleotide has three compounds which are 1) five carbon sugar called deoxyribose, 2) a phosphate group, and 3) a nitrogenous.
What Compounds made from living sources all contain the element?
All living sources contain the element Carbon
What do polymers contain?
Strictly chemistry speaking: a polymer is a repeated chain of a single molecule. They can be easily synthesized in a lab to create materials with specific properties (i.e. contact lenses, plastics, water repellant)
Do monomers make up macromolecules?
If the macromolecule is a polymer, then yes it is made of monomers. There can be some irregular macromolecules that are not polymers and thus are not made of monomers, but they are special cases (e.g. carbon nanotubes with attached side groups).
What is poly-propylene?
Polypropylene is a versatile polymer. It is used both as a plastic and as a fiber. Polypropylene is also known as polypropene. Polypropene is a polymer made up of monomers of propene (an alkene). In the presence of high pressure, high heat and the use of a catalyst, these monomers undergo an addition reaction whereby the monomers are joined together into a long chain known as a polymer. Nomenclature can be derived from "poly" meaning 'many' and "propene" the alkene with three carbon particles.
Why do carbon can contain many compounds?
Carbon be element, and element always contain more than one compound!
What element do organic compounds always contain?
Organic compounds always contain the element carbon.
Is the compound cshco3 does not contain the element?
carbon
What does the element c contain?
C is the symbol for the element carbon
Do organic molecules have to contain the element calcium?
No, they don't. Organic compounds have to contain the element carbon.
In which element is carbon not found?
Carbon is an element. No element contains anything but itself.
What element does a compound contain if it is organic?
carbon
Organic compounds contain the element?
carbon
What is the element that all things contain?
carbon
