Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
Environmentally damaging chemical processes have the potential to wipe out entire ecosystems and come to bite us humans back in the back with pollution issues. Making these chemical processes environmentally friendly can help alleviate this issue and avert such disasters eventually becoming a universally threatening problem.

Which one of the green chemistry principles do you feel is most important and why?
Catalysis --> Out of all the various techniques present, catalysis is the one that specifically addresses an issue of making chemical processes more effective. It has the potential to reduce energy used in reactions and perhaps even directly affect all of the other 5 principles.

1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
If they aren't environmentally friendly, we're killing the earth and everything on it, including us.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why? I think the most important principle is prevention, because it includes all/most of the other principles.

3. Statement: I think that it depends. If there is a way to make it using less energy, it should be used. However, if it takes up a lot of energy and there is no other alternative, then it should be made but with restrictions.

1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

I think that it is important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly as  we need to take care of the environment around us to ensure that we are able to still live in a semi-healthy environment. So we need to clean up after ourselves to prevent the damage we have done to becoming worse.

1. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

They all are super important but I think number 6.Design for Energy Efficiency is one of the more important as once we figure out how to design a type of efficient Energy we will be that much closer to achieving clean energy for a clean environment but definitely also 1.Prevention as that is also key to having a clean environment.

Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
- Because at the end of the day we live on this planet and we will be held responsible for our actions. It is important that if we are to release chemicals that they don't harm the environment. Chemical warfare on humans is seen as immoral, so how can we live with the fact that we do this to the environment?

Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
- I think that number 10 which is design of degradation is the most important. I believe everything we have comes from the Earth, so we must find a way to send it back. Its like borrowing something from someone, I believe that you are responsible for returning it.

“If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn’t matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it.”

To what extent do you agree with this statement and why?

- Actually I disagree with that statement. I understand how important it is to combat diseases and save lives. However the statement says it doesn't matter how much energy. I believe that a statement as vague as that should not be taken into consideration because it can be misused easily.

1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

Because plants are very important to humans and we need them to survive, but if we use chemicals that harm/kill the plants we are not only destroying the habitat of other animals as well as us.

1. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

I think prevention is very important. We need to learn to stop complaining about the things that happen because of us. People talk about how we need to be more environmentally friendly but aren't acting on their complaints. I think that most people understand that we are destroying the environment but aren't willing to stop and admit that we are the cause for this. Thats why, we need to stop ourselves before we make things worse, stop things before they begin.

Statement:
“If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn’t matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it.”
'To what extent do you agree with this statement and why?'

I disagree with the fact of not thinking about the effects that we will have on the environment if we create a chemical for our own use. However, I don't think we should not give people healthcare just because it will effect the environment. I think that we need to asses the situation and create smart solutions to try and prevent the problems before the happen.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

Being able to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly is important, such that we can continue to develop products and, and to make chemicals without risking the integrity of the ozone layer, and the health of the environment.  As a lot of environmentally harmful chemicals are used in everyday objects, ranging from plastics to televisions. All of which requires a massive amount of chemicals with high toxicity.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

I think the most important principle would be the less hazardous chemical synthesis, as it would design chemical reactions and synthetic routes to be as safe as possible. Consider the hazards of all substances handled during the reaction, including waste. I think this is important because it would allow us to continue using the materials that we rely on in a safer way. Such that we don't have to stop using plastics and chemicals.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

This is because the chemical processes that we use can create these byproducts that we don't want, and with out proper control it will negatively impact our environment. We have already destroyed our environment quiet a lot and should really start to look after it.
2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

I think that prevention is one of the important ones. If we are able to stop or reduce the waste being there in the first place, we won't need to find other solutions to try and clean it up.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

It's important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly because we only have one earth and if we're not careful, then we won't be able to sustain it for many more years to come.
2.Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

The most important principle is the prevention because it's more effective if there was minimal waste to begin with rather than trying to do something with our waste.

“If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn’t matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it.”

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

Making our chemical processes more environmentally friendly allows us to make tests more often without having to worry about our environment being harmed. A lot of toxic chemicals are being used in products that are being sold, and when they get thrown out, these toxic chemicals get released into our atmosphere. By making chemical processes more environmentally friendly, it eliminates this hazard.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

In my opinion, prevention seems to be very important, as it's better to avoid the need to deal with waste rather that deal with it in any way. Waste is a big factor of why our environment can get harmed. Another important principle is designing chemicals for degradation. A lot of pollution comes from factories, using the same toxic chemicals to create products. If these chemicals can be degradable,, this pollution can be decreased, and it will help the environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
I think that in our current situation and the environment with all types of waste we don't need to be generating anymore. Like the article said prevention is important since it is easier to prevent the clean up waste.

Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
I think that the most important green chemistry principle s are Prevention, Designing for Degradation, and Less Hazardous Chemical Synthesis.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly? I think its important because it will benefit us as well as the environment , since some chemical processes impact the environment negatively it is essential to take into consideration the pros and cons.

2.  Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
Designing safer chemicals because in order to stop this issue you should stop it from the source. By doing this it can prevent bad effects but also the prevention relates to this to get rid of the waste.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

By making our chemical processes more environmentally friendly is important as we do not want to harm our environment and cause any more damage then already done. Also chemical waste is the most dangerous and we do not need it.

1. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

I think prevention is the most important one, because if we stop making waste, there will be no waste to clean and therefore there will not be any waste to worry about.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
Making the chemical processes we use more environmentally friendly allows us to be able to conduct experiments without creating unwanted byproducts that can negatively impact our environment.
2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

I think prevention is the most important one because if we can reduce the waste being created, then we wouldn't need to find other solutions to clean it up.

# data[].attributes.body
Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
- Environmentally unfriendly chemical processes means we are harming the earth and wildlife which we all need to survive

Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
- prevention because you can keep cleaning up and taking care of the waste but it is much better to make sure you aren't creating that waste in the first place.
“If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn’t matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it.”
To what extent do you agree with this statement and why?
- If there are other methods in which the chemical can be created or anther alternative, we should not use the chemical that uses a large amount of energy. I think that if there is no other alternative then it can be used but it should come with restrictions.

# data[].attributes.body
1.Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
We must protect our own environment even if that means slowing down chemical research for 'greater good'. If we kill our own environment, we will not be able to carry on the chemical research that requires using things from nature.

2.Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
All seem to be equally important, but I think prevention is the most important. I think preventing waste is the first step to make.

“If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn’t matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it.”
This is a hard ethical dilemma, so I really think this depends on the situation.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

Ans. I think that design for efficient energy is the most important on e as our energy consumption is increasing and the oil and coal resources that we used to rely on to power us have been depleted and thus we need to develop efficient energy that won't run out and doesn't add to the pollution that already exists.
2. Why might it be important to   make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

Ans. We need to protect the environment and thus for the future processes that we undertake should not add more load to the pollution and waste that already exists.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

1. There are numerous chemical in this world which through their production and use, cause great harm to the earth, either through polluting the air or creating holes in teh ozone layer. Since we live on the anything that happens to the planet, happens to us too. Therefore the wellbeing of the human race we should try to keep our environment as healthy and clean as possible.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

2. I feel that the all of the chemistry principles are important in their own way. But if I had to choose my preference would be number 6. This is as, if we are able to improve the efficiency in our energy usage and production we could drastically decrease the amount we need to produce. Energy efficiency affects everything in our lives and it's the only principle has such a widespread reach.

# data[].attributes.body
Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
Currently, our electricity consumption is increasing and our main supply of electricity, fossil fuels, are running out. The effect that fossil fuels have on our environment are bad, but not as bad as it will be when we run out. If we start changing to renewable energy now, we can make sure that we secure a healthy and sustainable future.

Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
I believe that the most important point is design for energy efficiency. As mentioned above, being efficient with our energy production and consumption is a must in the coming years. Efficient must refer to sustainable as this is one of the world's major problems today.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

a: Because there many types of chemicals in this world, there are also many types of toxic chemicals in this world. Chemicals damage many ecosystems and the atmosphere around us causing them to be toxic even for us humans. If we started to change the many chemical processes for the better of this world, it makes it more safe for everyone and everything.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

a: I think preventing waste is the most important of the 12 principles because with all the waste we have filling up landfills, polluting areas such as the ocean and etc. We are making that waste by doing useless things. At the same time waste is taking up a lot of space which we could use for our industrial needs
or for other beings such as animals. Takes more time to clean up.

3. To what extent do you agree with this statement and why?
“If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn’t matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it.”

a: Well I think that we should make an effort to use the energy more efficiently as possible. But do it if you need to. (Maybe as a last resort let's say a shortage and you need it to be made quickly.)

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
It we made chemical process more environmentally friendly we would be saving this world. If we release chemicals that could possibly harm the environment, we are possibly harming ourselves. We live on this planet, we have to treat it with care, if we don't, we are killing the environment and putting our lives at risk.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
They all are very important in their own way, but, if I had to choose one, I'd choose number 11. Pollutions affects many many many things and is we could prevent pollution then we could prevent many other things.

3. To what extent do you agree with this statement and why?
"If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn't matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it."
I feel this statement is wrong, it is good if you find a way to cure someone's live, but if you are using up all the energy on that person, what will the earth be getting? It won't be balanced.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?

It is important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly because is one of the key factors towards achieving a 'perfect' world in which we would be able to prevent waste, design for energy efficiency, and overall minimise or completely reduce the environmental damage of the chemical industry.

2.Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

According to me, 'Design For Energy Efficiency', might be the most important because, it helps create a base to support all the others.

3.“If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn’t matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it.” To what extent do you agree with this statement and why?

I think we should begin to find alternative solutions, and take control of the situation before it reaches to this extent.

So to protect the environment, not only for nature but also for us, because right now we are facing a number of issues concerning the environment, e.g, global warming.
2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
Either use of renewable feedstocks or design for energy efficiency because if we move from nonrenewable energy (e.g, fossil fuels) to renewable energy (e.g, solar), we as humans could last much longer. Same goes for the environment.

Currently chemical processes is one of the key factors of destroying the environment. If we can improve chemical processes to be more environmentally friendly then we can reduce the damage to the Earth.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?

10. Design for Degradation
Chemical products should be designed so that at the end of their function they break down into innocuous degradation products and do not persist in the environment.

I believe that this is the most important because after companies are done with their chemicals. They just pollute the environment with the chemicals. If they can find a way to break it down and not danger the environment then that would be great.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
It is important because rather than make more toxic waste, we should prevent it from happening in the beginning. Rather than using unnecessary chemicals, limit yourself to what you need.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important and why?
I think the first one - prevention - is the most important because that is where all of the other points fall under, we need to use as little as possible before it's too late. Rather than using our energy to clean up our waste, we should prevent creating that waste in the first place. Link

# data[].attributes.body
1) Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
-Because the environment sustains life on this planet and if chemical processes harm the environment it harms us as well.

2) Use of Renewable Feedstocks
-If chemicals that are vital to our standard of life run out because they are not renewable then it would be a huge problem. Therefore, it is important to find ways to ensure that chemicals used are renewable.

3)“If humans need a certain chemical for, say, medical reasons, it shouldn’t matter how much energy is used to make it. We should just make it.”  To what extent do you agree with this statement and why?
-If it's a life-saving medical treatment then by all means make as much of it as needed and provide it for free too (Universal Healthcare for the win!). In all other cases, I think that a utilitarian view needs to be taken. If it's in the greater good then make the chemical. If not, then don't.

1. Why might it be important to make chemical processes more environmentally friendly?
Because the sources on this planet is not infinite for humans to use. Therefore using the sources in an efficient and less harmful way, save the environment for future uses.

2. Which one of the green chemistry principles do you think might be the most important?
#7: Use of Renewable Feedstocks
A raw material or feedstock should be renewable rather than depleting whenever technically and economically practicable.
-Reason: Using the renewable feedstocks, many wastes can be prevented and less spaces are occupied in the lab for more materials.

3. To what extent do you agree with this statement and why?
I don't agree with this completely. It is dangerous to break the balance in the nature for human reasons. Certain amount of the sources can be taken and use for the research, but once we take too much and break this balance, the sources can be used out---especiallt when the sources are not renewable, and we might lose in for a long period of time and not be able to use it again.

Firstly, global warming is a growing concern in our world today. Using renewable means of energy will stop us form poisoning the earth we live on. Many fossil fuels are being burned and release tons of Carbon Dioxide that then goes into the atmosphere and destroys the ozone layer. Many gases such as Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, chlorofluorocarbons etc. have been the cause for temperature rise, ice melting and sea levels rising.

Today we discussed how pressure, concentration, surface area and temperature all affected chemical reactions.

Pressure: We know that the higher the pressure is in an environment, the particles in that same environment tend to move a lot faster because more collisions take place as the matter to space ratio is smaller. Because more collisions take place due to space and speed, the probability that two atoms are in the right orientation for a fruitful reaction to occur is higher.

Concentration: Concentration is similar to pressure however in this case, our variable is how much of each element/atom is in the environment. The more particles there are, the more collisions take place and therefore the average speed of each particle increases as well which further increase the amount of collisions taking place. As mentioned earlier, the more collisions that take place per unit time, the higher the chance that a fruitful collision occurs.

Surface Area: Surface area plays a big role here as well. The higher the surface area, the more interactions different particles may have with each other. Also, less surface area means that the heat energy will spread throughout the atoms at a faster rate saving a lot of time. The more interactions means the more collisions which means a higher probability of a fruitful collision taking place.

Temperature: The higher the temperature, the higher the average kinetic energy of the particles is. The higher the kinetic energy of each particle is, the faster the average speed of the particles is meaning more collisions may take place at a faster rate. More collisions results in a higher probability of a fruitful collision taking place.

However, if the experiment only measures the amount of say H2 produced in the reaction Mg + H2SO4 --> MgSO4 + H2, then would be need to do stoichiometric calculations in order to figure out how much of the other products were created, in order to get a more comprehensive and accurate rate of reaction value?

Through the HCl and Mg experiment, I learnt that with less concentration, the gradient of the curve becomes more gentle, means that the rate of reaction slows with less concentration.

Didn't have any questions really, I understood everything well and then also did the exercises to consolidate my learning.
