Which technique gives the weight-average molar mass of a polymer?

  1. AMembrane osmometry
  2. BEnd-group titration
  3. CVapour pressure osmometry
  4. DLight scattering

Answer: D

Scattered light intensity depends on the mass of each particle, so it weights heavier chains more and gives . The other methods count molecules and give .
