Justify the statement: Polymer molecular weight is
expressed in terms of an average. Calculatethe number
average and weight average molecular weights of polymer
molecules with different degrees of polymerization such as
300, 550, 750 and 900 that are mixed in a molecular ratio
1: 2: 3: 4 in a sample of high polymer of styrene(C6H5
CH= CH2).
Why do molecular compounds have low melting and boiling points compared to ionic compounds?
