What metalloid has commonly been used as an insecticide due<br> to its effectiveness as a poison.
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Arsenic.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since insecticides are substances that act as poisons to get rid of insects in order to prevent their presence and/or reproduction in houses, companies, crops and others, a substance that has been widely used is the metalloid arsenic due to its direct affection of the insect's body (movement, performance, cellular functions).

In addition, high levels of arsenic in food could cause arsenic poisoning in humans as well, that is why such practice must be properly performed and by using the correct security protocol.

Best regards!

C12H22011+1202--&gt;12CO2+11H20
kogti [31]

Answer:

0.185moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of O₂  = 49.8L

Unknown:

Number of moles of sucrose required  = ?

Solution:

We can assume that the reaction takes place at standard temperature and pressure.

From this, we can find the number of moles of oxygen that reacted and extrapolate to that of sucrose.

Chemical equation;

           C₁₂H₂₂0₁₁  +  120₂   →   12CO₂   +   11H₂0

Number moles  = \frac{volume of gas}{22.4}   at STP

Number of moles of oxygen gas = \frac{49.8}{22.4}   = 2.22moles

           12 moles of oxygen gas combines with  1 mole of sucrose

       2.22 moles of oxygen gas will combine with \frac{2.22}{12}   = 0.185moles
