Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary type of bonding in polymers?
Correct Answer: Covalent bonding
  • Step 1: Understand what polymers are. Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers.
  • Step 2: Learn about bonding. Atoms in molecules are held together by bonds.
  • Step 3: Identify the types of bonds. The main types of bonds are ionic, covalent, and metallic.
  • Step 4: Focus on covalent bonds. Covalent bonds occur when atoms share electrons.
  • Step 5: Connect it to polymers. In polymers, covalent bonds link the monomers together to form a long chain.
