Question 1

What is the ideal gas equation (state each variable/constant and values)

Answer 1

PV = nRT

P = Pressure (Pa)
V = Volume (m³)
n = Number of moles
R = Gas constant (8.31 JK ⁻¹kg ⁻¹)
T = Temperature (K)

Question 2

How do you calculate atom economy?

Answer 2

% Atom Economy = (Mr of desired Product ÷ Mr of total products) × 100

Question 3

How do you calculate percentage yield?

Answer 3
