Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is polymerisation?
A
joining up of shorter monomers to make polymers to make plastics
B
breaking down of longer polymers into shorter monomers to make plastics
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Polymerization is the process to create polymers. These polymers are then processed to make various kinds of plastic products. During polymerization, smaller molecules, called monomers or building blocks, are chemically combined to create larger molecules or a macromolecule.

Detailed explanation-2: -polymerization, any process in which relatively small molecules, called monomers, combine chemically to produce a very large chainlike or network molecule, called a polymer.

Detailed explanation-3: -Polymerization is a process of formation of polymers (macromolecules) by joining of several monomers by covalent bonds.

Detailed explanation-4: -1 Addition Polymerization. In addition polymerization (sometimes called chain-growth polymerization), a chain reaction adds new monomer units to the growing polymer molecule one at a time through double or triple bonds in the monomer.

Detailed explanation-5: -A process of making the monomer molecules react together in a chemical reaction and produce three-dimensional networks or polymer chains is called polymerization.
