Abstract

This is a sequel to a recent paper by John Knopfmacher (1998) on the problem of asymptotic enumeration of different kinds of isomers of ensembles or mixtures of molecules, involving together with other atoms a large number n of carbon atoms, in total. The new kinds of mixtures to be chosen for application below require and are treated with the aid of both the previous mathematical tools, and new theorems based on different techniques.
