XE-FMSQ2 marksNeeds review
The ‘unperturbed dimension’ of the polymer chain is represented as,
where,
= root-mean square end-to-end distance
= average length of a segment
= number of segments in the chain Using the above information, root-mean square end-to-end distance of a branched polyethene would be ________________ when compared with that of the linear polyethene of the same molecular weight and the same number of segments.Your answerSelect all correct options.
