ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

What is Green Chemistry?

Green Chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and/or generation of hazardous substances.

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

Green Chemistry is Benign by Design

When chemists plan, manufacture, process, use, and dispose of chemical products, they are making determinations about the impact on human health and environment .

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

Benefits of Including Green Chemistry in High School

Chemistry Courses

• Improves academic labs that are not models of best practice.

• Cumulative effect of sustainable practices is great.• Students learn by example, important to set clear

priorities early. • Activities redesigned to replace current activities, but

with a ‘greener’ focus.• Activities and labs use commonly available supplies.• U.S. Students lag in understanding of topics relevant to

everyday life.

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

“…while a majority of students are aware of environmental issues, their understanding of the underlying causes of these issues lags behind their awareness…”

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

What if?

Calculate the possible cumulative effect of not using safer materials.

A traditional clock reaction requires 150mL, 0.01 M HgCl2, per group of two students. If approximately 2 million introductory students in the U.S. did the safer experiment, how much mercury waste would be avoided?

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

Mercury calculation

Although it may be unlikely for every student in the U.S. to do the same experiment, the cumulative effect of using unsafe substances can still be significant!

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

Energy Required to Heat Water

Chemistry Concepts:Energy, thermochemistry, experimental design, calorimetry

Traditional lab: Calculating specific heat capacity of substances. Measuring the heat of combustion using calorimetry

Green Chemistry Principle: Using lower amounts of energy in chemical processes

The Green fix: Comparing relative amounts of energy for heating substances in the lab

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

Energy Required to Heat Water

For each method of heating water we must do two calculations:

1.The amount of heat produced by the source (Bunsen burner, hot plate, or microwave).

2.The amount of heat absorbed by the water.

The amount of heat absorbed, compared to the amount of heat produced by the source, is the efficiency of the heating method.

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

Heat Produced by Bunsen burner

Bunsen BurnerCombustion of methane takes 245 seconds (rate of flow = 19.9 x 10-3 L/s) to heat the water.

First, calculate the amount of heat released by the reaction

CH4 + 2 O2 CO2 + 2H2O

ACS-NSTA Green Chemistry Web Seminar, November 9 2010

Heat Produced by Bunsen burner

The combustion reaction involves methane and oxygen combining to form carbon dioxide and water

CH4 + 2 O2 CO2 + 2H2O

Calculate the heat of reaction from standard heat of formation values.
