Abstract

Unsaturated hydrocarbons undergo a reaction called polymerization which forms multimolecular molecules made up of units of the reactants. If two unsaturated hydrocarbons are reactants, the process is called copolymerization. The purpose of this project was to write a computer program to find the two parameters relating Y to X₁ and X₂, given the values for Y and X₁ (and implicitly then, X₂).
