How do you delete a blank page between two chapters in LaTeX?

The default setting for many books (and many thesis templates) is two-sided, with each chapter opening on a right-hand-side page. To get rid of these empty pages, just add the oneside option (or alternatively, the openany option) to your document class declaration.

How do you get rid of an extra page in writing?

You can remove blank pages in Writer using the following options. Option 1: Place the cursor at the beginning of a blank page and click backspace or delete. Option 2: Place the cursor at the end of the page before the blank page that you want to remove and press delete.

What does clear double page do?

The \cleardoublepage command ends the current page and causes all figures and tables that have so far appeared in the input to be printed. In a two-sided printing style, it also makes the next page a right-hand (odd-numbered) page, producing a blank page if necessary.

Your problem is that all chapters, whether they're in the appendix or not, default to starting on an odd-numbered page when you're in two-sided layout mode. A few possible solutions:

The simplest solution is to use the openany option to your document class, which makes chapters start on the next page, irrespective of whether it's an odd or even numbered page. This is supported in the standard book documentclass, eg \documentclass[openany]{book}. (memoir also supports using this as a declaration \openany which can be used in the middle of a document to change the behavior for subsequent pages.)

Another option is to try the \let\cleardoublepage\clearpage command before your appendices to avoid the behavior.

Or, if you don't care using a two-sided layout, using the option oneside to your documentclass (eg \documentclass[oneside]{book}) will switch to using a one-sided layout.
