7. The free radical polymerization of tetrafluoroethylene (C₂F4) using a free radical initiator was conducted at 110 °C using 3.5 M of the monomer and 0.075 M of the initiator. Given that the initial rate of polymerisation was 3.33 x 10 mole/L s, the termination rate constant (K₁) is 5.6 x 10°, and Mn obtained was 195 000 g/mol. What was Kp for the reaction? [6] Page 8 of 11
