The degree of polymerization at t = 10h of a polymer formed by a stepwise process with polymerization rate constant of 3×10−2 M−1 s−13 \times 10^
Question

The degree of polymerization at t = 10h of a polymer formed by a stepwise process with polymerization rate constant of 3×102 M1 s13 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{M}^{-1} \, \text{s}^{-1}and an initial monomer concentration of 50 mM is

A.

55

B.

65

C.

550

D.

505

Correct option is A

​The degree of polymerization, or DP, is the number of monomeric units in a macromolecule or polymer or oligomer molecule. The degree of polymerization is given as:

is the degree of polymerization

[Mo] is the initial monomer concentration

t is the time required for the polymerization

k is the polymerization rate constant
