False, polymers are molecules made from repeating units of identical or nearly identical compounds called monomers that are linked together by a series of covalent bonds.

What very large organic compound made up of chains of smaller molecules?

A very large organic compound made up of chains of smaller molecules is a polymer. Polymers are macromolecules formed by repeating units of smaller molecules called monomers. Examples of polymers include proteins, DNA, and synthetic plastics.


Giant organic molecule made of small molecules linked together?

No, it is one molecule.However some large organic molecules (i.e. polymers) are formed from small organic molecules (i.e. monomers) that bond together into long chains, forming one new large molecule. The small molecules no longer exist as individual molecules after bonding into the large molecule.


Very large molecules that are made of a chain of many smaller molecules are called?

Polymers.


What are huge molecules made up of many smaller organic molecules called?

Huge molecules made up of many smaller organic molecules are called polymers. These polymers are formed through the process of polymerization, where smaller units called monomers are linked together to form long chains. Examples of polymers include proteins, DNA, cellulose, and synthetic materials like plastics.


Do living things produce many natural materials made of large polymers molecules?

Yes they do.


Are Organic molecules are made from a small collection of simple precursors?

Yes, organic molecules are generally made from a small collection of simple precursors called monomers. These monomers can join together through chemical bonds to form larger molecules known as polymers, which make up the diverse array of organic compounds found in living organisms.


Are Polymers molecules made from repeating units of identical organic compounds that are linked together by hydrogen bonds?

False, they are by covalent bonds


Is polymer chains made of large molecules?

This is a valid statement, however it requires a little mind bending. Large organic molecules essentially are linked polymers to create a monomer. However, traditionally monomers are considered to be molecules that link easily in a chain and polymers are the chain, so in that way, this statement could be considered incorrect.


What is the difference between organic polymers and inorganic polymers?

In general organic contains carbon molecules and/or those related to life. It is the chemistry of carbon containing compounds.Inorganic is everything else and generally do not contain carbon (with some exceptions).


Complex organic molecules whose name means many units?

Polymers are complex organic molecules made up of repeating chains of smaller units called monomers. These monomers join together through chemical bonds to form long chains of polymers with various properties and uses in nature and industry. Examples of polymers include proteins, DNA, and synthetic materials like plastics.


What are the individual subunit of larger organic molecules called?

The individual subunits of larger organic molecules are called monomers. Monomers can join together through chemical bonds to form polymers, which are larger molecules made up of repeating units of monomers.
