Mass Intensity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Mass Intensity = Total Mass of Process/Mass of Product
MI = TMP/MPr
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Mass Intensity - Mass Intensity is the mass ratio of total input of materials (excluding water) to final product.
Total Mass of Process - (Measured in Kilogram) - Total Mass of Process is weight of all components in process excluding water.
Mass of Product - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Product can be calculated using the balanced equation, the mass and relative formula mass of the limiting reactant, and the relative formula mass of the product.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Total Mass of Process: 50 Kilogram --> 50 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Mass of Product: 17 Kilogram --> 17 Kilogram No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
MI = TMP/MPr --> 50/17
Evaluating ... ...
MI = 2.94117647058824
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
2.94117647058824 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
2.94117647058824 2.941176 <-- Mass Intensity

What are green chemistry metrics?

Green chemistry metrics describe aspects of a chemical process relating to the principles of green chemistry. The metrics serve to quantify the efficiency or environmental performance of chemical processes, and allow changes in performance to be measured. The motivation for using metrics is the expectation that quantifying technical and environmental improvements can make the benefits of new technologies more tangible, perceptible, or understandable.
