For each of the following pairs of polymers, do the following: (1) state whether it is possible to decide whether one polymer has a higher tensile strength than the other; (2) if this is possible, note which has the higher tensile strength and cite the reason(s) for your choice; and (3) if it is not possible to decide, state why.
(a) Syndiotactic polystyrene having a numberaverage molecular weight of 600,000 g/mol; atactic polystyrene having a number-average molecular weight of 500,000 g/mol
(b) Random acrylonitrile–butadiene copolymer with 10% of possible sites crosslinked; block acrylonitrile–butadiene copolymer with 5% of possible sites crosslinked
(c) Network polyester; lightly branched polypropylene
