You are a chemist in the medicinal branch of a fledgling Pharmaceutical Company that produces generic drugs for an industry leading retail company. Your team is responsible for the production of the generic drugs manufactured by R~equate Pharmaceuticals. Your factory is responsible for producing enough of the active ingredient every day to ship to all of the retail stores that carry our product. R~equate primarily manufactures generic over-the-counter pain medications. You have a certain quota to meet in order to produce the required amount of product. It is your responsibility to calculate the amount of reactants to order and have on hand to meet each days production quota. Using stoichiometry and percent yield data, analyze the information available and determine the mass of each reactant that will produce the required amount of active ingredient. Keep in mind you only have 5 hours or 300 minutes to place your order. |
