The money lost through the recrystallization process [tex]= 196.2 \times 10^9=196.2[/tex] billion
As per the data given in the question,
Mass of aspirin formed =1.366 g
Mass of recrystallized aspirin =0.209 g
Loss of mass of aspirin during recrystallization =1.366-0.209 g=1.157 g
Per cent loss [tex]=\frac{1.157}{1.366} \times 100=84.7 \%[/tex]
Cost of 1 mg aspirin =0.0861 cents
cost of 1.157 g or 1157 mg aspirin [tex]=0.0861 \times 1157=99.6177[/tex] cent =1 (approximately)
41000 metric tons of aspirin [tex]=41000 \times 100 kg=41000 \times 1000 \times 1000 g=41 \times 10^9g[/tex]
Loss during production of [tex]0.209 g[/tex] of aspirin =1
Loss during production of [tex]$41 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~g}$[/tex] of aspirin [tex]$=1 / 0.209 \times 41 \times 10^9=196.2 \times 10^9$[/tex]
Hence, loss [tex]= 196.2 \times 10^9=196.2[/tex] billion
