A Polydisperse mixture of a polymer can be describe by the following composition-molar mass data: `{:(Mass%),25.0,50.0,25.0),(Mi(kgmol^(-1)),1.00,1.20,1.40):}` Calculate the number -average and the mass-average molar masses.

Answer» Each of the mass%values must be converted to values of`Ni`.Assuming`100.0g.m`of the mixture ,the amounts of each polymer are:
Moles=(Wt.)/(Mw),`
`N_(1)=(25)/(1000)=2.50xx10^(-2)mol`
`N_(2)=(50)/(1200)=4.17xx10^(-2)mol`
`N_(3)=(25)/(1400)=1.79xx10^(-2)mol`
`Substituting the values in (i)and(ii)of Illustration 16.4,we get
`Mbar(n)={:[((2.50xx10^(-2))(1.00kgmol^(-1))),(+(4.70xx10^(-2))(1.20kgmol^(-1))),(+(1.79xx10^(-2))(1.40kgmol^(-1)))]:}/(2.50xx10^(-2)mol+4.17xx10^(-2)mol+1.79xx10^(-2))=1.18kgmol^(-1)`
`Mbar(w)={:[((2.50xx10^(-2)mol)(1.00)^(2)),(+(4.17xx10^(-2))(1.20)^(2)),(+(1.79xx10^(-2))(1.40)^(2)kg^(2)mol^(-1))]:}/([{:((2.50xx10^(-2)mol)(1.00)),(+(4.17xx10^(-2))(1.20)),(+(1.79xx10^(-2))(1.40)):}]Kg)=1.20kgmol^(-1)`

Explain why propone polymerises in isotactic,syndiotactic and atactic forms ,while vinylidence chloride`(CH_(2)=CCl_(2))`does not. (b) Which form of polypropene (isotatic,syndiotactic,and atactic)Would be optically active?

Answer» (a)Polypropene has chiral`C`atoms and,therefore,exists in different forms as mentioned .Polyethylidene chloride,on the other hand ,does not have chiral`C` atom and thus does not exist in the forms mentioned.
(b)All formsof polypropence`(PP)`would exist in equal amount of enantiomers,with net specific rotaiton of zero,So each form would exist as racemates.
