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 alcohols and carboxylic acids. Alcohols are used as fuels and solvents. They can be oxidized to carboxylic acids, such as ethanoic acid in vinegar. Ethanol is produced industrially from ethene or via fermentation. Carboxylic acids react with metals and carbonates, forming salts.
