Problem 5-8 (Level 1) The polymerization initiator I-I decom- poses to give two free radicals, l', via the elementary reaction 1-1 - 21 (1) The free radical. I', decomposes to another radical, R', by the elementary reaction I* - R + C (2) The radical. R'. can attack I-I via the elementary reaction R' + ]-I R-1 + 1 and two R radicals can combine by the elementary reaction 2R - RR Derive a rate equation for the disappearance of 1-1
