Question: Chain Addition Polymerization - Rate Calculations Calculate the expected value of x n for a chain addition polymerization at steady state where: [ M ]

Chain Addition Polymerization - Rate Calculations
Calculate the expected value of xn for a chain addition polymerization at steady state where:
[M]=5molL;[Mx.]=0.01molL;[RSH]=0.1molL
The rate constants are given below.
ki=3.5*10-4L*smol;kp=7*10-1L*smol;kCT=5.6*10-6L*Smol
At these conditions, 1mol of initiator radical l is present for every 110mol of monomer M.
[Hint: Yes, there is no data relating to kd, but you already have enough information make a straightforward assumption to formulate a rate of initiation. No, this does not involve using data from Question 2].
