In trying to control fall armyworms in crops, an Agriculture extension officer applied cypermethrin which was prepared by dissolving 200g of the cypermethrin , C22H19Cl2NO3 in 1000g of water H2O . Calculate the mole fraction of cypermethrin in the solution.

Mole fraction for C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃ = 0.0086

Explanation:

Mole fraction remains a sort of concentration. It indicates:

moles of solute / (moles of solute + moles of solvent)

Moles of solute / Total moles.

Solute: Cypermethrin → C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃

Solvent: Water (PM = 18g/mol)

We calculate moles from solvent: 1000g /18 g/mol = 55.5 moles

We calculate PM for C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃

12g/mol . 22 + 1g/mol . 19 + 35.45 g/mol . 2+ 14g/mol + 16g/mol . 3 = 416 g/m

Moles of solute: 200 g / 416g/mol = 0.481 moles

Total moles: 0.481 + 55.5 = 55.98 moles

Mole fraction for C₂₂H₁₉Cl₂NO₃ = 0.481 moles / 55.98 moles = 0.0086

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

qualitative observation deals with data that can be observed with our senses: sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. they do not involve measurements or numbers. for instance, colors, shapes, and textures of objects are all qualitative observations.
