Calculate the enthalpy of polymerization for the reaction of ethylene (C2H4) to polyethylene (C2H4)n, given that the enthalpy of combustion for ethylene is -1411 kJ/mol and the number of moles of ethylene used in the reaction is 4.5 mol. Assume that the reaction is exothermic and that the enthalpy change is constant over the extent of the reaction.
