Is a chemical process that lyses, or splits, molecules by the addition of water functioning in disassembly of polymers to monomers.

The answer is: Hydrolysis

Explanation:

Hydrolysis is the chemical method in which water molecule is added to a molecule, which leads to the cleavage of one or more chemical bonds in the molecule. In this reaction, the water molecule acts as a nucleophile and breaks down the large molecules like polymers into smaller molecules such as monomers. Hydrolysis reaction includes fragmentation, elimination substitution reactions.
