Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The percent atom economy for the following reaction is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
All the reactant material is not necessarily converted to the desired product. Often, a non favored (side) product is also formed. If the reactant(s) is/are converted completely to the product, the conversion efficiency is 100%. This type of inherent efficiency of the reaction is called percent atom economy, and it is calculated using the equation
When the numerator and denominator are the same, the atom economy is
