- You are trying to synthesize a new compound that has potential anti-HIV activity – it could be the next drug used to treat HIV! It can be synthesized (made) from two commercially available starting molecules – call them “A” and “B”. They can be combined according to the following equation:A + 2B -> desired drug molecule. “A” has a molar mass of 85.0 g/mol, and “B” has a molar mass of 130.0 g/mol. You look these starting materials up in a chemical catalog, and here’s what you find:compound “A” costs $5000.00 per 5.0 gramscompound “B” costs $2500.00 per 1.0 gram(though you can buy either in any amount)a) You currently have $10000.00 to spend on starting materials.
