Polymers are made from Monomers

This clip is useful for GCSE chemistry, showing polymers are made from small units called monomers.
I use shopping trolleys to represent monomers, then when they are pushed together in a chain, they are like polymers. It's a bit silly but a bit of fun!

I just know, now, that I'm going to picture you in my exam with your trolleys and have to depress my laughter - however, I rekon I'll also get the answer right! Thankyou. x

[roisinmcneil]

I hope it helps you remember it for your exams! good luck!

Good analogy

(:

Thanks that was really confusing in my biology book

whatever other people say here, really , u are a great teacher. Loved the video although I already know what a monomer and a polymer are. there should be more videos like this on more difficult topics. Sure would have helped me

Nice example :o). Especial for someone whose English is a second language and couldn't really get the full meaning of the word.
