1. Refer to the reactivity ratio table given below: IB Monomer A Styrene Styrene Styrene Styrene Styrene Styrene Monomer B Butadiene Methylmethacrylate Methyl acrylate Acrylonitrile Maleic anhydride Vinyl chloride TA 0.78 0.25 0.75 0.40 0.02 17 1.39 0.46 0.18 0.04 0 0.02 From the entries for the reactivity ratios for free-radical copolymerization of styrene with (a) butadiene, (b) methyl methacyrlate, (c) methyl acrylate, (d) acrylonitirle, (e) maleic anhydride, and (1) vinyl chloride, for each of these copolymerizations calculate: (1) The comonomer composition required to form a copolymer consisting of 50 mol % styrene repeat units. (2) For the azeotropic copolymerizations, calculate the azeotropic composition.
