This video is an educational guide about condensation polymerization, which is the process used to make polymers that form repeating units of different molecules by eliminating a small molecule, usually water. The video explains the difference between condensation polymerization and addition polymerization, the key components required for making a polyester, and how two different types of molecules can react to form a polymer. The video also describes the general formula for condensation polymerization and how to use it to determine the structure of the polymer that can be formed from specific monomers.
