Question
Alternative method
The company is developing a "greener" method of making propene oxide from propene using hydrogen peroxide, H₂O2, in
supercritical water with a vanadium catalyst. In the reaction 1.00 kg of vanadium catalyst and 32.0 kg of water are used for each
kilogram of propene. 75% of the vanadium catalyst can be collected and reused in a subsequent batch:
V, H₂O
→ C3H6O + H₂O Consider the prices of the following substances.
89.0% yield
C3H6 + H₂O2
▼
Part B
There is virtually no waste produced with this green process and there is no waste disposal fee, but the yield is only 89.0%.
