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:
Partial pressure of CO₂ is 406.9 mmHg
Explanation:
To solve the question we should apply the concept of the mole fraction.
Mole fraction = Moles of gas / Total moles
We have the total moles of the mixture, if we have the moles for each gas inside. (3.63 moles of O₂, 1.49 moles of N₂ and 4.49 moles of CO₂)
Total moles = 3.63 mol O₂ + 1.49 mol N₂ + 4.49 mol CO₂ = 9.61 moles
To determiine the partial pressure of CO₂ we apply
Mole fraction of CO₂ → mol of CO₂ / Total moles = P. pressure CO₂ / Total P
Partial pressure of CO₂ = (mol of CO₂ / Total moles) . Total pressure
We replace values: (4.49 moles / 9.61 moles) . 871 mmHg = 406.9 mmHg
