Question

Polymers are formed via dehydration reactions by molecules. Which of the following best describes a dehydration reaction?

Assembling molecules in either carbonyl or carboxyl functional groups
Assembling molecules in either hydroxyl or carboxyl functional groups
Dissembling molecules in carboxyl functional groups
Dissembling molecules in hydroxyl functional groups

Answer 1

Assembling molecules in either hydroxyl or carboxyl functional groups

Step-by-step explanation:

Polymers are formed via dehydration reactions by molecules. ... For this a dehydration reaction first off is the assembling of monomers when water is lost. And for dehydration reactions molecules that contain hydroxyl or carboxyl as functional groups.
