Engineering - Polymer Science Problem:

Given that homopolymers formed by the following monomers (a  - e) have the following molecular mass distribution:

w1              M1
0.05         10,000
0.25         50,000
0.20         80,000
0.20        100,000
0.15        150,000
0.10        200,000
0.05        500,000

a) CH2=CH(CH3)
b) CH2=CHCl
c) CF2=CF2
d) CH2=CH(OH)
e) CH2=CH2

Calculate the number average molecular weight Mn and the corresponding degree of polymerization of each polymer?
