Green Chemistry Principles - Atom Economy | Environmental Chemistry | Chemistry | FuseSchool
Learn the basics about the atom economy principle of Green Chemistry, as a part of environmental chemistry.
A reaction with a high atom economy is one where all of the atoms in the reactants are included in the final, desired product. Such a reaction would have little, if any, waste produced.
According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, no atoms are created or destroyed in a reaction. The atoms from the reactants are simply rearranged to form products, so why not maximise a certain reaction so that no atoms are wasted as side products.

Plants have developed responses called tropisms. A tropism is a growth in response to a stimulus; so light and water in the plant’s case.
There are different types of tropisms: Positive tropisms are when growth is towards the stimulus - so the plant growing towards the light to maximise the stimul

Enzymes are really important proteins, that speed up the rates of reactions such as in photosynthesis, respiration and protein synthesis.
The enzymes and substrates are always moving, and occasionally they collide at the right speed and
