To determine: The ways in which using the principle, “it is better to use as few steps as possible in making a new chemical” advances the goals of green chemistry and relation between this principle and energy efficiency.
Answer to Problem 1DE
Explanation of Solution
It is better to use as few steps as possible because the lesser the number of steps, the lesser the production of wastes. This is also one of the goals of green chemistry that says it is better to prevent waste than to clean it up after it has been created.
Moreover, synthesizing a chemical using less number of steps would minimize the use of energy. As energy is involved in each chemical process, lesser number of steps would lead to energy efficiency.
One of the goals of green chemistry emphasizes on prevention of waste generation that is possible if lesser number of steps are used in making a chemical. Less number of steps also means less energy usage that is energy efficiency.

- Speaking of composite materials, indicate the correct option:(A). Composite materials can only be: metal-polymer or polymer-polymer.(B). Composite materials can be made up of particles, but not fibers or sheets.(C). When the reinforcing particles are uniformly distributed in a composite material, there may be a greater tendency for it to have isotropic properties.(D). None of the above is correct.arrow_forwardIf we are talking about viscoelastic modulus or viscoelastic relaxation modulus in polymers, indicate the correct option.(A).
