What is a large compound formed from combinations of many monomers called?

A large compound formed from combinations of many monomers is called a polymer. Polymers are created through processes such as condensation reactions, where monomers (the basic building blocks) bond together to form long chains or networks. This characteristic of having repeating units of monomers allows polymers to vary widely in structure and properties, leading to a diverse range of substances such as plastics, proteins, and nucleic acids.

Monomers refer to the individual units that can join together to make a polymer. Micromolecule is not a standard term used in this context, as it generally does not represent a class of compounds or a specific type of molecular structure in chemistry. The term "compound" simply refers to a chemical substance formed from two or more elements, which could be small or large and does not specify the structure related to monomeric units. Therefore, the term polymer specifically captures the essence of a large compound resulting from the combination of many monomers.
