Textbook Question
Chapter 9.9, Problem 9.24YT
Examine the values in Table 9.4 from the American Chemistry Council (ACC).
- a. Are these values comparable to those quoted by the EPA in Your Turn 9.20? Assume that the tons quoted were short tons; that is. 2,000 pounds per ton.
- b. The EPA reported the amounts recycled using one unit (million tons), and the ACC reported in another (million pounds). Several explanations are possible. Propose one.

Note: You may assume you have an excess of either reactant if the reaction requires more than one of those molecules to form the
products.
In the drawing area below, draw the skeletal ("line") structures of the missing organic products X and Y. You may draw the
structures in any arrangement that you like, so long as they aren't touching.
