Question

A polymer is a large molecule made up of chains of repeating basic molecular units
called monomers. Find the monomer which forms a polymer through addition
polymerization.
a)NH-CH2-CH2-COOH
b) OH-CH2-CH2-COOH
c) CH2=CH2-CH2=CH2
d) CH3-CH2-CH3​

Answer 1

Answer:

There are two basic ways to form polymers: (a) linking small molecules together, a type of addition reaction, and (b) combining two molecules (of the same or different type) with the elimination of a stable small molecule such as water.
