Question 1

Define isomer

Answer 1

Molecules with the same molecular formula but different structures.

Question 2

What is a monomer?

Answer 2

They are pieces used to create polymers.

Question 3

What happens during dehydration synthesis?

Answer 3

Monomers are joined together to make polymers.

Question 4

What happens during hydrolysis?

Answer 4

Polymers are broken back into monomers.

Question 5

State whether hydroxyl is polar, nonpolar, +charge, or -charge.

Answer 5

Hydroxyl is polar.

Question 6

State whether Carbonyl is polar, nonpolar, +charge, or -charge.

Answer 6

Carbonyl is polar.

Question 7

State whether amino is polar, nonpolar, +charge, or -charge.

Answer 7

Amino is +charge.

Question 8

Explain why carbon is a versatile building block for organic molecules.

Answer 8

Carbons structure can be short, long, branch out, or stay single.

Question 9

Explain the relationship between monomers, polymers, dehydration synthesis, and hydrolysis.

Answer 9

Monomers and polymers are related because polymers are made up of monomers. They are related to dehydration synthesis because dehydration synthesis is the process of the monomers being joined together to make the polymers. They are related to hydrolysis because that is the process in which the polymers are being broken down back into monomers.
