At 3 370 kcal/person/day, Europe currently has the highest average per capita food supply. http://iopscience.iop.org/1748-9326/8/3/034015/article Put another way, shifting the crops used for feed and other uses towards direct human food consumption could increase calories in the food system by 3.89 × 1015 calories, from 5.57 × 1015 to 9.46 × 1015 calories, or a ~70% increase. A quadrillion (1 × 1015) food calories is enough to feed just over 1 billion people a 2700 calories per day diet for a year (which is 985 500 calories per year) [1]. Therefore, shifting the crop calories used for feed and other uses to direct human consumption could potentially feed an additional ~4 billion people. http://blog.nature.org/science/2014/06/18/global-agriculture-land-sustainability-deforestation-foodsecurity/ From 1998 to 2009 (the latest year global food supply data is available from FAO) we saw a 4.4% increase in global calories produced per capita (from 2,713 kcal/capita/day to 2,831) while total agricultural land area dropped by 0.8% (although this may be too small a change in area for this data to reliably detect; see data disclaimers section below). About 32% of the increase came from animal products (mostly meat and milk), with another 27% from vegetable oil and 26% from fruits and vegetables. - See more at: http://blog.nature.org/science/2014/06/18/global-agriculture-land-sustainability-deforestation-foodsecurity/#sthash.daJ0uR3K.dpuf

Answer B. False World capacity (kcal) = 3.04 x 1019 J x 1cal/4.184J x 1kcal/1000cal World capacity (kcal) = 7.26 x 1015 kcal (per year) World demand = 2700 kcal/ person x 1/day x 365 days/yr = 6.9 x 1015 kcal (per year) http://iopscience.iop.org/1748-9326/8/3/034015/article Put another way, shifting the crops used for feed and other uses towards direct human food consumption could increase calories in the food system by 3.89 × 1015 calories, from 5.57 × 1015 to 9.46 × 1015 calories, or a ~70% increase.

Determining a Limiting Reagent Which one of the reactants has fewer stoichiometrically adjusted moles than the other reactant? The reactant with the smaller value is the limiting reagent. Calculation: Divide the mass of each reactant by its respective Molar Mass, and then by its Stoichiometric factor from the balanced equation; compare the results. The lowest one is the limiting reagent.

Limiting Reagent Calculation The reactant present in the smallest molar amount considering stoichiometry limits the mass basis of any reaction. 2 C8H18(l)+ 25 O2(g) 16 CO2(g)+18 H2O(l) 228 g octane / 114 g/mol = 2 mol octane 600. g oxygen / 32 g/mol = 18.75 mol oxygen 2 mol octane / 2 mol (stoich.) = 1 18.75 mole oxygen / 25 mol (stoich.) = 0.75

Mass Effects of the Limiting Reagent What amount of octane remains unreacted in the reaction of 600. g of O2 with 228 g of octane? 600. g O2 x mol O2 /32g O2 x [2mol C8H18 /25mol O2] x 114 g / mol C8H18 = 171 g C8H18 are reacted 228 g - 171 g = 57 g C8H18 remain unreacted https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/reactants-products-and-leftovers/latest/reactants-products-and-leftovers_en.html

QUESTION

ANSWER

Limiting Reagent / Theoretical Yield The limiting reagent governs the theoretical yield of products. For the reaction of 228 g of octane with 600. g of oxygen, what is the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide? 2 C8H18(l)+ 25 O2(g) 16 CO2(g)+18 H2O(l) 600. g O2 x mol O2 /32g O2 x 16mol CO2 /25mol O2 x 44g / mol CO2 = 528 g CO2

Percent Yield A reaction was conducted that theoretically would produce 0.0025 moles of quinine, C20 H24 N2 O2 . The actual amount of isolated quinine was 780 mg. What is the percent yield of quinine? 324 g/mol x 0.0025 mol = 81g = 810mg(theoretical) % Yield = 780 mg/ 810 mg x 100 % Yield = 96%

QUESTION If a reaction produced 2.45g of Ibogaine, C20H26N2O, a natural product with strong promise in treating heroin addiction, and the theoretical yield was 3.05g, what is the % yield? A) 19.7% B) 39.4% C) 80.3% D) 160.6%

ANSWER If a reaction produced 2.45g of Ibogaine, C20H26N2O, a natural product with strong promise in treating heroin addiction, and the theoretical yield was 3.05g, what is the % yield? 19.7% B) 39.4% C) 80.3% D) 160.6% % yield = 2.45g / 3.05g x 100 = 80.3%

Thoughts to Consider How much CO2 do you produce per gallon of gasoline (octane, d= 0.70 g/ml) when gasoline is combusted? How much CO2 do you personally produce from driving every week?…. every month? …. every year? ….from other uses and sources? “Man-made” CO2 directly relates to global warming. How does “man-made” CO2 relate to jobs and the global economy? Why do people in nations in the EU, the U.S., China, Japan & others produce tons more of CO2 than people in under developed or developing nations? Global Warming Questions
