Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 11.136 Green Chemistry and Design Tradeoffs skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Which final justification is strongest for a green chemistry design choice?

AThe selected route is green because it has the highest yield and no other data are needed

BThe selected route is supported by data across safety, atom economy, waste, energy, toxicity, cost, and life-cycle impact, while acknowledged tradeoffs are monitored

CThe selected route is green because the product name sounds environmentally friendly

DThe selected route is green because tradeoffs should be ignored after a decision

Solution & Explanation:A strong justification uses multiple evidence-based criteria and acknowledges tradeoffs instead of relying on one slogan or metric.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Use the scatter plot of E-factor and production cost for four routes. Which conclusion is best supported?

ALower E-factor routes in this set have higher production cost, so the decision involves a waste-cost tradeoff

BCost and waste are unrelated for these routes

CThe route with the highest E-factor is automatically lowest risk

DE-factor is measured in dollars per kilogram

Solution & Explanation:The plotted data show a tradeoff that should be weighed with safety and performance.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A nanomaterial is used in very small mass per product. Which risk question is still necessary?

AWhether small mass makes hazard impossible

BWhether particle exposure, persistence, toxicity, and environmental fate create risk despite the small mass

CWhether nanoscale particles are too small to interact with matter

DWhether mass replaces exposure controls

Solution & Explanation:Low mass can reduce material use, but nanoscale exposure and fate can still matter.
