A student writes the following explanation of how certain molecules are formed.A process is used to chemically link smaller units to form a larger molecule that is made up of repeating units. The properties of the larger molecule are determined by the chemical structure and the order or bonding of the smaller units.The student is explaining

Polymerization chemically joins small units called monomers into a larger molecule called a polymer, which consists of repeating units. The polymer’s properties depend on the monomers’ chemical structures and how they are arranged or bonded. Therefore, the student is explaining polymerization, not elimination, hydrohalogenation, or substitution.
