What is the chemical reaction by which monomers are linked together to form polymers?
This type of reaction is named polymerization.
Polymers are formed by hydrolysis?
Polymers, my good friend, are formed by condensation. Hydrolysis is when the polymers get taken apart.
What type fo chemical reaction occurs when polymers are broken apart by water?
they bond together
What chemical reaction formed these large molecules?
Large organic molecules (macromolecules) are generally formed by condensation reactions between smaller molecules.Condensation means that a small molecule is formed from the atoms removed during the reaction. In cells, the small molecule is water, so the type of condensation reaction is dehydration.Examples:glucose + (chain of n glucose residues) forms chain of n + 1 residues + wateramino acid + (chain of n amino acid residues) forms chain of n + 1 residues + water
What is the name of the chemical reaction which combines monomers to make polymers?
Simply - polymerization. However, this is usually addition polymerization but not always. Nylon is formed by condensation polymerization and the polymers used to make waterbased latex paints is usually called emulsion polymerization.
What type of chemical reaction connects polymers together?
The type of chemical reaction that connects polymers together is dehydration synthesis.
What reaction synthesizes lipids?
Lipids are synthesized by the chemical reaction condensation, and are broken down by the reaction hydrolysis.
What are Monomers of large macromolecules assembled during a chemical reaction called?
Polymers
What is the term for the chemical reaction that joins the monomers of polymers together?
Dehydration synthesis or condensation
What is the chemical reaction by which monomers are linked together to form polymers?
This type of reaction is named polymerization.
Polymers are formed by hydrolysis?
Polymers, my good friend, are formed by condensation. Hydrolysis is when the polymers get taken apart.
What is another name for condensation reaction?
A condensation reaction is a chemical reaction where man-made polymers are made. Condensation reaction is a reaction that links monomers with the release of water.
What kind of chemical reaction needs to take place so that methanol can be synthesized?
The most common reaction is:CO + 2 H2 = CH3OH
What mean polymerise?
Polymers are chemical substances which are made up from smaller units, called monomers. The reaction of joining these monomers to form this larger unit is called polymerisation. (monomers polymerise into polymers). The subunits, or polymers, are typical of the chemical substances. For example, the monomers of proteins are amino acids, monomers of carbohydrates are monosaccharides, monomers of nucleic acids are nucleotides. The reaction itself, by what these monomers are joining together, is a dehydration or condensation reaction.
What type fo chemical reaction occurs when polymers are broken apart by water?
they bond together
What type of chemical reaction occurs when polymers are broken apart by water?
Hydrolysis. Polymers are broken down into monomers in a process known as hydrolysis
What type of chemical reaction occurs when polymer apart by water?
Dehydration synthesis, also called condensation, is the type of reaction that builds polymers by removing water.
