Glycogen/starch
A condensation reaction involves the loss of a small molecule like water or alcohol. If a molecule has only one functional group available for reaction, there is no additional site for the loss of a molecule, which is necessary to form a polymer chain. Hence, a molecule with only one functional group cannot undergo condensation polymerization to form a polymer.

Yes. They are called polymers. But they are very old, since plastic originated in the mid-late 1800's. But we are discovering new polymers to this day.
The change in free energy would be negative due to the formation of a more stable cellulose polymer. The total energy would remain the same as energy is conserved in a chemical reaction. The entropy would decrease as the formation of a more ordered polymer reduces the randomness of the system.

When two atoms absorb thermal energy to form a molecule, their kinetic energy increases, leading to vibrations and rotations within the molecule. This can cause the bond between the atoms to stretch, bend, or twist, resulting in changes to the molecule's geometry or bond lengths. Ultimately, this can impact the molecule's stability, reactivity, and other properties.
