what kind of reaction is shown below?
monomer 1 + monomer 2 → monomers linked by covalent bond
h₂o
○ dehydration synthesis
○ hydrolysis
○ neutralization
○ combustion

Explanation:

Dehydration synthesis is a reaction where two monomers combine, and a water molecule is released. In the given diagram, Monomer 1 (with -OH) and Monomer 2 (with -HO) react, and \(H_2O\) is produced as they form a covalent bond. Hydrolysis is the reverse (breaking bonds with water addition). Neutralization involves acid - base reactions. Combustion is a reaction with oxygen (usually producing \(CO_2\) and \(H_2O\) for organic compounds).

Answer:

dehydration synthesis
