a polymer is a plastic. a monomer is a chain of molecules which are alkenes as they have a double covalent bond in them. This monomer is then heated and the double covalent bonds break and join with others to make a longer chain of molecules. this is a polymer-plastic. to find out the name of a polymer add poly to the name of the monomer e.g. ethene is a monomer and when it is heated it makes polyethene which is a plastic.
What else can I help you with?
Why are certain substances able to polymerize?
no
How do you make change glucose into starch?
Enzymes polymerize glucose into starches.
Is it true Dipeptides can be denatured?
Yep, dipeptides cyclize and polymerize at room temperature
What do plants do with the sugar they do not use immediately?
They polymerize the sugar into either cellulose and/or starch.
Is polymerize to form polyethylene a chemical or physical?
Polymerization is not a property; it is a type of chemical reaction.
What is the formula of tetrafluorothene?
C2F4 - when you polymerize it, you get Teflon.
What are lipids of large molecules?
Lipids are fats, or to be technical, they are non-polar organic molecules. They do form large molecules but they do not polymerize.
What are the subunits that polymerize to form starches?
The subunits that polymerize to form starches are glucose molecules. Glucose molecules link together through glycosidic bonds to form starch polymers. Starch is composed of two types of polymers: amylose, which is a linear chain of glucose molecules, and amylopectin, which is a branched chain of glucose molecules.
Why does food blacken?
i think it is because of some enzymes that cause browning. WHEN THEY POLYMERIZE,THEY GIVE VARIETY OF COLOURS EG brown AND BLACK
How many repeating units are in a monomer?
there are not repeating units in a monomer.
What is the name for the compound B2H4?
The compound B2H4 is called diborane. It is a colorless gas at room temperature and is known for its highly reactive nature due to its tendency to polymerize.
How does 4 nucleotides polymerize to form nuclic acid?
Nucleotides polymerize through a condensation reaction between the phosphate group of one nucleotide and the sugar group of another nucleotide. This forms a phosphodiester bond, linking the nucleotides together to form a nucleic acid chain. DNA and RNA are examples of nucleic acids formed by polymerization of nucleotides.
