How is addition polymerization different from condensation polymerization? during condensation polymerization, all the atoms in the monomer units are retained in the polymer; addition polymerization results in the loss of a small molecule, such as water. during addition polymerization, all the atoms in the monomer units are retained in the polymer; condensation polymerization results in the loss of a small molecule, such as water. during addition polymerization, the chain grows in one direction only; during condensation polymerization, the chain can grow in multiple directions. during condensation polymerization, the chain grows in one direction only; during addition polymerization, the chain can grow in multiple directions. follow report by chalceem

The correct answer is

During addition polymerization, all the atoms in the monomer units are retained in the polymer; condensation polymerization results in the loss of a small molecule, such as water

Explanation:

Polymerization is a process in which small individual units (called monomers) are joined together to form a large molecule (called polymer) via a chemical reaction.

Addition polymerization is a process in which small units of compounds (monomers) having double/triple bonds are repeatedly added to each other (using these bonds) to form a large molecule (polymer). Here, all the atoms in the small units (monomers) are present in the polymer. Examples of polymers formed by addition polymerization are polyethylene and polypropylene.

Condensation polymerization is the process in which small units of compounds (monomers) react with each other to form a large molecule (polymer) with the release of small molecules such as water or ethanol. In condensation reaction, not all the atoms in the monomers are present in the polymer since a small molecule such as water or ethanol is lost. Examples of compounds formed as a result of condensation reaction are cellulose and starch

they are both synthetic elements

explanation:

d

the number of protons in the nucleus of a given element. has slight luster and conducts electricity at high temperatures like metal.but like a nonmetal,boron is brittle and does not conduct electricity well at low temperatures. in graphite, carbon is a soft,brittle solid.it is reflective,ductile,or malleable.
