A copolymer was synthesized by reacting equimolar mixture of monomer A (mol. weight. 100 g/mol) and monomer B (mol. wt. 150g/mol). The Tg s of homopolymers of A and B are 100 °C and 200 °C respectively. What would be the Tg of the copolymer if it was a) a completely random copolymer and b) a pure block copolymer
