Methyl methacrylate was polymerized at a mass concentration of 200g/dm-3 in toluene using AIBN as initiator at a mass concentration of 1.64 X 10-2 gdm-3 and a reaction temperature of 60 oC. Calculate the initial rate of polymerization and the molar mass of the poly(methyl methacrylate) formed in the initial stages of the reaction. Given that the relevant rate constants at 60oC are:
i) initiator dissociation, kd= 8.5 X 10 -6 s-1.
ii) propagation, kp = 367 dm3 mol-1 s-1.
iii) termination, kt = 9.3 X 106 dm3 mol-1 s-1.
iv) transfer to monomer, ktrM = 3.93 X 10 -3 dm3 mol-1 s-1.
v) transfer to solvent, ktrS = 7.34 X 10 -3 dm3 mol-1 s-1.
Assume that the initiator efficiency is 70 %, that the termination by combination is negligible ie most occur by disproportionation, and that the density of the initial solution of MMA in toluene is 860 g dm-3.

Pegmatites are igneous rocks in which the individual minerals are very large. typically, the minerals are all light-colored quartz, feldspar and muscovite. if you were given a black and white photograph of a pegmatite in a quarry (where the rock has been blasted and broken), what physical properties could you use to identify those three minerals in this hypothetical photo? describe each mineral and the specific diagnostic properties. be specific.

Can anyone explain 1. review your spectrometry data and use the known elements to identify the star's composition. which unknown elements make up this star? justify your element selections. 2. in parts i and ii of the lab, what happened to the electrons of each element to produce the different colors of light? explain your answers using important terms from the lesson and information provided in the laboratory. 3. stars composed of heavier (more massive) elements are often slightly older than stars made predominantly from hydrogen and helium. based on your data, is the newly discovered star a younger star? explain your answer.
