Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the process called when a polymer is formed by the addition of monomers without the loss of any small molecules?
  • Step 1: Understand that a polymer is a large molecule made up of smaller units called monomers.
  • Step 2: Learn that addition polymerization is a way to create polymers.
  • Step 3: Know that in addition polymerization, monomers join together directly.
  • Step 4: Remember that no small molecules are lost during this process.
