The highest atom economy
2CO + O₂ ⇒ 2CO₂
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
The reaction for the production of CO₂
Required
The highest atom economy
Solution
In reactions, there are sometimes unwanted products that can be said to be a by-product or a waste product. Meanwhile, the desired product can be said to be a useful product, which can be shown as the atom economy
of the reaction
the higher the atomic economy value of a reaction, the smaller the waste/ byproducts produced, so that less energy is wasted
The general formula:
Atom economy = (mass of useful product : mass of all reactants/products) x 100
<em>or
</em>
Atom economy = (total formula masses of useful product : total formula masses of all reactants/products) x 100
So a reaction that only produces one product will have the highest atomic value, namely the reaction in option C
It is topsoil, subsoil, and parent material
An example of an atom that has no charge is one that has a. 2 protons, 2 electrons, and 1 neutron.
To be neutral an atom must have the <em>same number</em> of protons (+) and electrons (-).
Only then will the <em>charges cancel</em> and give a neutral atom.
The Earth's structural zones (S-Zones) are the lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, inner core, and outer core.

the Earth's surface. It is about 2,300 kilometers thick
