Propene can undergo addition polymerisation because it consist of a susceptible double bond which can open up and react with other propene molecules to produce a long continuous macromolecule called polypropene.

What monomer is most likely to form an addition polymer?

A monomer with a carbon-carbon double bond (alkene) is most likely to form an addition polymer. The double bond can be broken to allow the monomers to add together without the formation of any byproducts.

There are no synonyms for a monomer, it can combine with other molecules to form a polymer, but even polymer is not synonymous...


Large molecules that are formed by joining smaller organic molecules together?

These are polymers, which are made by linking monomers together through chemical bonds. This joining process is called polymerization, and it can result in a wide variety of complex and diverse molecules with unique properties and functions.


How is propene obtained from crude oil?

Propene is obtained from crude oil through a process called steam cracking, where long-chain hydrocarbons in crude oil are broken down into smaller molecules such as propene. This process involves heating the crude oil to high temperatures in the presence of steam, which causes the hydrocarbons to undergo thermal decomposition and form propene along with other byproducts.

Long chain-like molecule made of repeating units?

Molecules consisting of chains of repeating units are called polymers. Polymers are made up of smaller molecules that join to form these larger molecules. Examples of polymers include starch and nylon.


What is a a monomer?

Monomers can be defined as relatively small and simple molecules that bond together (during a polymerization reaction) to form a macromolecule called a polymer. Thus we can say that monomers are the units responsible for the formation of a polymer. A monomer is a molecule that can be bonded to other molecules to form polymers
