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 : The balanced chemical equation is,

Explanation :
Rules for the balanced chemical equation in basic solution are :
- First we have to write into the two half-reactions.
- Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.
- Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.
- If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the more number of oxygen are present.
- If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydroxide ion
at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present. - Now balance the charge.
The half reactions in the basic solution are :
Reduction :
......(1)
Oxidation :
.......(2)
Now multiply the equation (1) by 2 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.
The balanced chemical equation in a basic solution will be,
