The corn crop in an area is prone to infestation by larvae from moths that feed on the cornstalks and ears of corn. The techniques used by two farmers to protect the corn crop are described below.
Technique A: Sprayed his corn crop with an insecticide. The insecticide is known to kill all honeybee, butterfly, and moth larvae.
Technique B: Used a genetically modified variety of corn. The plant produces an insecticide which selectively kills only the moth larvae as it feeds on the corn.
Which technique is likely to have less of an impact on the environment?
Technique B because it preserves the harmless insects and targets only the moth larvae
Technique A because insecticide use is better for preserving the environment
Technique B because it may help humans who consume corn to fight bacA genetically engineered corn plant is approved for agricultural use.
Technique A because it kills a broader variety of insects to protect the corn

For a research project, a student decided to test the effect of the lead(ii) ion (pb2+) on the ability of salmon eggs to hatch. this ion was obtainable from the water‐soluble salt, lead(ii) nitrate, which the student decided to make by the following reaction. pbo(s) + 2 hno3(aq) → pb(no3)2(aq) + h2o losses of product for various reasons were expected, and a yield of 86.0% was expected. in order to have 5.00 g of product at this yield, how many grams of pbo should be reacted? (assume that sufficient nitric acid, hno3, would be used.)
