How to Calculate Atom Economy?
Atom Economy calculator uses Atom Economy = (Molecular Weight of Product/Molecular Weight of Reactants)*100 to calculate the Atom Economy, The Atom Economy formula is defined as is the conversion efficiency of a chemical process in terms of all atoms involved and the desired products produced. Atom economy was designed by Barry Trost as a framework by which organic chemists would pursue “greener” chemistry. The atom economy number is how much of the reactants remain in the final product. Atom Economy is denoted by AE symbol.
How to calculate Atom Economy using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Atom Economy, enter Molecular Weight of Product (MWP) & Molecular Weight of Reactants (MWR) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Atom Economy calculation can be explained with given input values -> 85 = (51/60)*100.
