A substance capable of donating a proton. (4.3)

A compound containing a carboxyl, !COOH, group.

A polymer that is formed under conditions in which the monomers do not react directly with each other, but rather, each monomer is added to the growing chain, one at a time.

The study of matter and the changes it undergoes. (1.1)

From the Greek, cheir meaning hand; an object that is not superposable on its mirror image; an object that has handedness.
