types of bonding
ionic
covalent
covalent bonding
contain few atoms
-low melting/boiling point
-liquid/gas room temp
-strong bonds
ionic bonding
-lose electron positively charged
-gain electron negatively charged
.in electrical field migrate to electrode with opposite charge.
how are bio polymers formed
formed from the monomers by condensation reactions
what are condensation reactions also known as
dehydration reactions
how are bio polymers broken
broken into their monomers by hydrolysis reactions
monomer for carbohydrates
