Learn about condensation polymers: formed when a diol reacts with a dicarboxylic acid, producing a polyester and water. These polymers are used in fabrics and biodegradable materials like biopolyesters, which decompose quickly, helping to reduce landfill waste.

Learn about energetics: exothermic reactions release heat, increasing temperature, while endothermic reactions absorb heat, lowering temperature. Calorimetry measures enthalpy change (ΔH) by recording temperature changes during reactions, such as combustion or neutralisation. The heat energy transferred is calculated using the formula Q = mcΔT, helping determine the energy change per gram or mole of a substance.
