AI Generated Solution

To find the mass percentage of vinyl chloride in the copolymer of ethene and vinyl chloride, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Copolymer Structure The copolymer consists of alternate monomers of ethene (C2H4) and vinyl chloride (C2H3Cl). This means that for every molecule of ethene, there is one molecule of vinyl chloride. ### Step 2: Determine the Molecular Masses - **Molecular mass of ethene (C2H4)**: - Carbon (C) = 12 g/mol, so for 2 Carbons: 2 × 12 = 24 g/mol ...
