You analyze the products of a Ziegler-Natta reaction for the synthesis of polyethyleneusing FT-IR (a technique that uses infrared light to measure the identity and concentrationof functional groups in a sample). From FT-IR, you determine that you have 1 mmol ofmethyl groups. You also know that 1 mol of ethylene was consumed in thepolymerization. Assume that all chains are terminated with methyl groups. What is theapproximate degree of polymerization (DP)? Before answering this question, consider the ways in which the structure of polyethylene depends on polymerizationconditions!

so we know that fischer esterification is a type of organic reaction that involves the formation of an ester from a carboxylic acid and an alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst. am I correct to assume that a fisher esterification mechanism would look different than the above nucleophilic addition reaction? If they are different you you present the Fisher esterification mechanism of the reaction of acetic acid with pentanol in the presence of an acid catalyst, sulfuric acid and explain the mechanism
