Question 49 GCE_MODEL_QUESTIONS_VOL1 • 2024 • CHEMISTRY • objective

A copolymer of styrene (M₁) and methyl methacrylate (M₂) is prepared. The monomer feed mole fraction of styrene is \(f_1=0.60\). The reactivity ratios are \(r_1=0.8\) for styrene and \(r_2=0.4\) for methyl methacrylate. Using the Mayo-Lewis equation, calculate the instantaneous mole fraction of styrene in the copolymer (\(F_1\)). Assuming the instantaneous composition remains constant throughout the reaction, give the overall mole fraction of styrene in the polymer after 50 % conversion.
