Detailed Solution

  • Green chemistry is a group of different processes and methods that help in minimizing the effects of pollution and eliminating the hazardous substances. 
  • It takes care that no products add to environmental pollution. 
  • Plastic bags and cans pollute water, soil and when burnt, release toxic gases into air. 
  • They are non-biodegradable and take long time to assimilate into our environment. 
  • So, using plastic cans does not come under green chemistry.
