Question

A condensation polymerization reaction produces a polymer and

1) H2
2) O2
3) CO2
4) H2O

Answer 1

Answer:
Option-4 (H₂O) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
Condensation reactions are those reactions in which two molecules combine to form a macromolecule with the elimination of small molecules like H₂O, HCl, ROH as a byproduct.

Example:
Amino acids (monomers) join together to form protein (polymer) with the elimination of H₂O molecules.
