Two mixtures were prepared from three very narrow molar mass distribution polystyrene samples with molar masses of 10,000, 30,000 and 100,000 g/mola indicated below: (A) Equal numbers of molecules of each sample (B) Equal masses of each sample. For each of the mixtures, calculate the number-average and weight-average molar masses and comment upon the meaning of the values.

Hello some parts of your question is missing

Two mixtures were prepared from three very narrow molar mass distribution polystyrene samples with molar masses of 10,000, 30,000 and 100,000 g mol−1 as indicated below: (a) Equal numbers of molecules of each sample (b) Equal masses of each sample (c) By mixing in the mass ratio 0.145:0.855 the two samples with molar masses of 10,000 and 100,000 g mol−1 For each of the mixtures, calculate the number-average and weight-average molar masses and comment upon the meaning of the values.

Answers:

a) 46.666.66 g/mol

b) 20930.23 g/mol

c)43333.33 g/mol

Explanation:

A)The equal number of molecules of each sample can be calculated using  

because for the number of molecules to be equal : n1 = n2 = n3 = n

Mn = 46666.66 g/mol

B ) To calculate the equal masses of each sample

we apply this equation
