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
Answer:
a. 
b. K = 192.9
c. Products are favored.
Explanation:
Hello!
a. In this case, according to the unbalanced chemical reaction we need to balance HCl as shown below:
In order to reach 2 hydrogen and chlorine atoms at both sides.
b. Here, given the concentrations at equilibrium and the following equilibrium expression, we have:
![K=\frac{[HCl]^2}{[H_2][Cl_2]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BHCl%5D%5E2%7D%7B%5BH_2%5D%5BCl_2%5D%7D)
Therefore, we plug in the data to obtain:
c. Finally, we infer that since K>>1 the forward reaction towards products is favored.
Best regards!
Convection currents in the Earth's mantle cause plate movement which causes earthquakes and volcanic activity.
This is a combustion reaction.
