Condensation polymerisation is when two molecules of the same substance (monomer) react together to form polymer chain (like polythene) and eliminate a smaller (usually water) molecule. For example, Nylon-6 is prepared by using condensation polymerisation of ε-Caprolactum

No, condensation is the change from gas to liquid, a physical change.

The formation of a polymer is a chemical change.

AnswerIf you mean condensation reaction, then the answer is yes. Monomers are joined together to make polymers through condensation reactions (dehydration reactions in nutrients).

How is polymerisation carried out?

There are 2 types:- Addition polymerisation is polymerisation in which monomers are joined across the double bond, for example polyethene. Condensation polymerisation is when water is lost from the two monomers for example the polymerisation of nylon, the two monomers are a diamine and dicarboxylic acid. From the amine an H goes and combines with and OH from the acid to form water. From this reaction, 2 moles of water are lostto form nylon -NH-[ ]-NH-C=O-[ ]-C=O-

nothing


Why is condensation polymerization known as step growth polymerization?

condensation polymerization takesplace in a step wise manner.In addition polymerization monomers react to form polymers and there is no biproduct formation.In condesation polymerisation, byproducts are formed in every steps called as dimer,trimer.tetramer etc...

What is adition polymerisation?

it is the fusing together of monomers and hydrocarbons by using heat.addition to above answere.it is the addition of monomer molecules to form bigger particle which is called polymer.the reaction is carried out by heat, and catalyst like potassium per sulphate,cumene peroxide,s.m.b.s.etc.as well as emusifier is must for emulsion polymerisation.the molecular wt. of polymer is much more than monomer.
