Q.

The polymerisation of propene to linear polypropene is represented by the reactionwhere n has large integral value, the average enthalpies of bond dissociation for (C = C) and (C-C) at 298K are +590 and +331 kJ mol-1, respectively. The enthalpy of polymerisation is -360 kJ mol-1. Find the value of n.
