During interval II of an emulsion polymerization of styrene at 60?, there are 2.7 x1016particles/dm3 of latex, each latex particle containing styrene monomer at a volume fraction of 0.53. Given that, a reaction temperature, the density and rate coefficient for propagation of styrene are 0.88 g/cm3 and 341 dm3/(mol.s), respectively, calculate the rate of polymerization in interval II using the Smith-Ewart Case 2 equation
