21. 3 group in 3 has equal probability of being labeled or unlabeled.
22. In a batch reactor, secondary reactions between unlabeled and dilabeled ethanes and 3 can occur; the statistical 1:2:1 distribution of unlabeled, monolabeled, and dilabeled molecules is not affected by such a process. Consequently, the value calculated for the ratio of rates of degenerate/productive metathesis is underestimated.
