Question

Pick two of the principles of green chemistry, state which 2 you chose and show how they connect to your life or intended profession. Please be very clear (as in overtly) as to which two you are selecting so that I am sure to recognize the connections you are making.

-How has the Tragedy of the Commons affected you or your family? For example, when one of the creators of this course (Ted Picciotto) was younger, he and his father would see quail frequently in the state park near their home. Since then they have all but disappeared. Only recently has the population begin to rebound very slightly. If you are not old enough to remember a change in the environment, interview a parent or grandparent if possible.

-How have your studies to date prepared you for the future world in which you live? In what ways do you think your study of chemistry will prepare you?

Explanation / Answer

Best options are 1 and 5

Since, 1 option means in the sense of "prevention is better than cure " ie., Many of the conventional organic reactions gives unwanted side products and some times toxic materials also. We will eradicate the above two things through green chemistry.

A/C to point 5, green synthesis uses recyclable starting materials and with almost nill side products. Water is the best reusable solvet which we will use in green chemistry reactions.

Ex: Diels - Alder reaction is the best example for green synthesis.
