Chemistry atom economy

HI! I was just wondering if someone could please talk me through this question

In a reaction, bromopropane will react with sodium hydroxide to create propanol and sodium bromide, the atom economy is 72.04, what haloalkane could you replace bromopropane with to increase atom economy!!

What is the definition of atom economy?

The measure of the starting products used in the final required products as a percentage

im sooo glad i never have to do chemistry ever again

So which compounds are involved in this question?

LMAO the pain

bruh i had my last a level chemistry exam today and i literally still hav mechanisms and chloride ions running free in my brain
but i revised so hard for that exam and im glad cos i walked out that room as if i had just robbed a bank of marks

any haloalkane with an mr less than bromopropane e.g. Fluropropane

telll the chlorine radicals to yeet themselves off a cliff

nm that, the HCl is corroding away my brain.... then teachers complain why we dont function properly

Its all the iodine i drank, making me woozyy

any haloalkane with an mr less than bromopropane e.g. Fluropropane

Fluoropropane does not react with sodium hydroxide ...

lmao, bring out the silver kid
wat year u in?

Fluoropropane does not react with sodium hydroxide ...

12 ehh
