About polymers flashcards
GoConqr OriginalUsing polymers flashcards
Start with C1 Polymers if you want questions on what a polymer is and how polymers are made. For vocabulary practice, Definitions cards covers terms such as monomer, oligomer and polymer.
Once you have worked through a deck, return to the cards you found difficult and try answering before looking at the response. You can use the questions to check which terms or processes you want to revisit.
Choose a focus
Organic Chem: Macromolecules includes addition and condensation polymerisation, while Polymer revolution asks about plastics and types of polymers. Designer polymers focuses on materials including nylon and GORE-TEX.
If you want to see ideas arranged together, switch to a mind map on the Polymers unit page. A quiz there offers another way to check what you remember. Pick a topic and work through a few cards at your own pace.
Frequently asked questions
Which flashcard deck is a useful starting point?
C1 Polymers is a useful starting point for questions about what polymers are and how they are made. Definitions cards offers another starting point if you want to practise vocabulary, including monomer, oligomer and polymer, before moving on to questions about particular materials.
What topics do the flashcards cover?
The decks cover definitions, polymerisation and the properties of materials. Organic Chem: Macromolecules includes addition and condensation polymerisation. Designer polymers asks about nylon and GORE-TEX, while Polymer revolution includes questions about plastics, thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics.
Are these flashcards free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open and study without an account. A free account also lets you save quiz scores and make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes. The listed resources were made by GoConqr users.
Which levels do the decks suit?
The collection includes material for school and university study, as well as professional candidates. Some decks identify an exam in their title, such as GCSE Chemistry - Polymers and National 5 Chemistry-Plastics. Teachers can also use the listings to find material on definitions, polymerisation and plastics.
