Polymers
are
very
large
____________________
that
are
built
up
from
a
very
large
number
of
small
molecules
known
as
____________________
.
Addition
polymerisation
occurs
when
an
____________________
monomer
,
such
as
an
alkene
,
bonds
to
itself
in
an
addition
____________________
.
Poly
(
____________________
)
,
poly
(
chloroethene
)
and
poly
(
phenylethene
)
are
all
addition
polymers
.
____________________
polymerisation
involves
the
loss
of
a
small
molecule
(
usually
____________________
)
in
the
reaction
between
two
monomer
molecules
.
Both
polyesters
and
____________________
are
formed
by
condensation
polymerisation
.
Polyamides
are
formed
by
condensation
polymerisation
between
an
____________________
group
and
a
carboxylic
acid
____________________
.
These
groups
may
be
in
the
____________________
monomer
or
in
different
monomers
.

The
numbers
in
the
name
of
a
particular
nylon
refer
to
the
number
of
____________________
atoms
in
the
monomers
.
Condensation
polymerisation
between
the
amino
and
carboxylic
acid
groups
in
amino
acids
produces
a
____________________
or
protein
.
The
amide
links
in
these
polymers
are
known
as
____________________
links
