Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Water is ____ in a condensation reaction.
A
produced
B
consumed
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Water is also produced in this condensation reaction. A hydrogen molecule from the amine end of the 6-aminohexanoic acid splits off and is joined by the hydroxyl group from the carboxylic acid group at the other end of another molecule of 6-aminohexanoic acid.

Detailed explanation-2: -Water molecules in the vapor form are arranged more randomly than in liquid water. As condensation occurs and liquid water forms from the vapor, the water molecules become more organized, and heat is released into the atmosphere as a result.

Detailed explanation-3: -In organic chemistry, a condensation reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which two molecules are combined to form a single molecule, usually with the loss of a small molecule such as water. If water is lost, the reaction is also known as a dehydration synthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Condensation is the process where water vapor becomes liquid. 4-12+ Earth Science, Meteorology, Physics.

Detailed explanation-5: -Condensation reaction: A reaction in which two or more molecules combine to form a larger molecule, with the simultaneous loss of a small molecule such as water or methanol. While this occurs in many reactions, the term is usually reserved for reactions in which a new carbon-carbon bond is formed.
