4 (20 Points) Calculate the number-average molecular weight and the weight average molecular weight of a polymer sample made of polystyrene with a repeat unit of (CH2- CH(CHs)) and composed of two types of chains. 60 percent of the chains have a degree of polymerization of 7,000 and the rest 50,000. Carbon has an atomic weight of 12 g/mol and hydrogen is 1 g/mol.
An alternating copolymer is known to have a number-average molecular weight of 250,000 g/mol and a number-average degree of polymerization of 3406. One of the alternating mers is polystyrene which has a molecular weight of 105_g/mol. Given that the molecular weight of polypropylene is 42 g/mol and that of polyvinyl chloride is 61.5 g/mol, Which of them is the other alternating mer?

8.a) A random poly(styrene-butadiene) copolymer has a weight-average molecular weight of 467,500 g/mol and a weight-average degree of polymerization of 5500. Calculate the fraction of styrene (C:Hg) and butadiene (C4H6) mers in this copolymer. Atomic weights: C-12, H-1 b) What weight % sulphur must be added to vulcanize polyisoprene (mer weight = 68) by crosslinking one half the possible sites. In this elastomer, each pair of mers has two possible crosslink sites. Assume three sulphur atoms are involved in each...
(a) Any polymeric material will have a distribution of molecular weights, and therefore an average molecular weight is used to characters the material. Is it possible to have a polyethylene homopolymer with the following molecular weight distribution data and a weight average degree of polymerization of 2090? Why or why not? The polyethylene mer is shown below. (b) Based on the mer structure shown for poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polyethylene (PE). Which has potential for greater crystallinity? Provide a brief...
