Polyesterification With Monomers in Stoichiometric Ratios
Question
Polycondensation
(a) Assume a polyesterification is conducted in the absence of solvent or catalyst and that the monomers are present in stoichiometric ratios. Calculate the time (min) required to obtain a number-average degree of polymerization of 50given that the initial dicarboxylic acid concentration is 3 mol L-1 and that the polymerization rate constant is 10-2 L mol-1 s-1.
(b) Plot the maximum number-average degree of polymerization Xn against various molar ratios r of carboxylic acid and alcohol for a range of different ratios. (Choose the sensible ratios r yourself)
(c) We add now various amounts of the following compounds to the mixture:
· What structure would your polymer have?
· What do you need to consider if you want to achieve high molecular weights?
· How does the amount of this multifunctional compound influence the structure and solubility of the final product?
Summary
The question belongs to Chemical Engineering and the question is about polycondensation. The question discusses polyesterification with monomers in stoichiometric ratios and the structure of the polymer thus obtained. The solution discusses this in detail.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
I had spent a lot on another online assignment service provider but their quality of work left a lot to be desired and most of the time I was having to redo the whole thing on my own. So I was ending up paying a bomb without getting any results. That is when my friend told me about the great quality and affordable prices of HwA. Once I gave it a try I knew I had hit gold! My grades improved a lot and I have also got a clearer understanding of the concepts of factor markets.
Ahmed Shah Student
I got very solid advice on the primary intervention and assessment of the skin of a burn victim from the experts here on HwA. Since then I always take their help.
Esther Gibson Student
I was really stuck with the analysis of a work of William Faulkner in the final year of my course and then I approached HwA and got excellent response. Later that year, I also took their help for writing the book review of Booker’s Prize winning novel “God of Small Things†for my college.
Beth Parsons Student
Most of my classmates where very relaxed when it was time to deliver our Research Proposal. They don’t perceive it to be important to invest time in selecting the topic. The Research Proposal writer at HwA helped me to understand the importance of choosing simpler and doable topics rather than creating challenges later during the time of conducting the research. Needless to say that I was the only one in the class to get A+ in the Research Proposal and A in the actual Research Paper.
Zhi Jie Student
I am very happy customer of the atomic theory assignment help services of HwA. The online atomic theory assignment expert was very attentive to all the points that were mentioned by me to be followed for writing the assignment. I did not have to give any sort of reminders for the work and I received with plenty of time for me to go through it.

hi can anyone help or guide me to my assignments. thanks
This solution is perfect ...thanks
Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
