Question

which is a characteristic of addition polymerization? each monomer has more than one functional group. the polymer contains all the atoms in the monomer units. the polymer contains only some of the atoms in the monomer units. a small molecule, such as water, is produced during the reaction.

Explanation:

In addition polymerization, monomers add together without the elimination of any small - molecule by - product. All the atoms of the monomer units are incorporated into the polymer. Each monomer typically has a double or triple bond but not necessarily more than one functional group. Condensation polymerization is characterized by the production of a small molecule like water.

Answer:

The polymer contains all the atoms in the monomer units.
