Which reaction has the highest atom economy for the production of C02?

The highest atom economy

2CO + O₂ ⇒ 2CO₂

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

or

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

c. electrical charges of ionic bonds.
