Calculate the mean repeat unit molar mass for a sample of poly[ethylene-stat-(vinyl acetate)]that comprises 12.9 weight percentage (wt%) vinyl acetate repeat units. Given that its number-average molar mass is 39.870 g mol. calculate the number-average degree of polymerization of the copolymer.
Answer: mean repeat unit molar mass of the copolymer = 30.67 and the number-average degree of polymerization of the copolymer =1300
