This general expression (7) for the mole fraction of x-mer in the polymer (exclusive of unreacted ethylene oxide) is Poisson’s distribution formula. From the nature of the problem dealt with here, it is obvious, without the above derivation, that the numbers of molecules of various sizes must be represented by Poisson’s distribution. 15A brief kinetic derivation has been included in order to point out the scope of applicability of (7) to size distribution problems. The weight fractiondistribution is usually of more interest than the mole fraction distribution. Since the molecular weight of the x-mer species is given by
