Question 31 IGCSE_MODEL_QUESTIONS_VOL1 • 2024 • CHEMISTRY • objective

Elemental analysis of a copolymer gives mass percentages C = 51.0 %, H = 8.5 %, O = 40.5 %. The polymer is composed only of repeat units derived from monomer X (C₂H₄O, Mₓ = 44 g mol⁻¹) and monomer Y (C₃H₆O₂, Mᵧ = 74 g mol⁻¹). Assuming a random arrangement of units, determine (a) the mole fraction of monomer Y in the polymer (to three significant figures) and (b) the average molar mass of a repeat unit (to one decimal place).

Answer Options

A. 0.462; 59.8 g mol⁻¹
B. 0.527; 61.4 g mol⁻¹
Correct Answer C. 0.473; 58.2 g mol⁻¹
D. 0.389; 55.0 g mol⁻¹
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
0.473; 58.2 g mol⁻¹
