Assuming that 1.00 L of 4% PVA solution is spread out to form athin sheet of thickness equal to the average length of a PVAstrand, calculate the total area of the liquid sheet. Thencalculate the average of the sheet of solution per strand of PVA.Assuming this area is a little square, the square root of this areagives the edge length of the square which is approximately theaverage distance between the PVA strands. Show that this distanceis about ten times the estimated diameter of a PVA strand (0.2-0.3nm).
