If a scientist turns a polymer into a monomers in the laboratory would the resulting material be larger or smaller than the starting reactants

if you are talking about the amount of material, it will be equivalent. But monomers are usually smaller than polymers.

Polymers are compounds and substances that are a large complex and have many molecules in them. Monomers are the smallest unit having a single molecule in them.

If a polymer is converted into a monomer then the resulting material will be shorter than the reactant.

  • The amount of material and the constituent will be the same but the results produced will be shorter.

  • The repeating unit of the polymer has many macro-molecules in hem which gets split into monomers.

  • Monomers will be the single unit of macro-molecule.
