Which of the following principal of green chemistry suggests use of chemicals made from plant based sources?

  • A
    Minimisation of steps in process
  • B
    Design for degradation
  • Correct answer
    C
    Use of renewable feed stocks
  • D
    Reduce number of derivatives

Solution

Use of renewable feed stocks is the green chemistry principle advocating for raw materials derived from replenishable sources like plants, rather than depletable resources.

This directly contrasts with options describing process minimization, degradation design, or derivative reduction, which address efficiency and waste management rather than material origin.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
