Phenolphthalein is an acid–base indicator. In solutions of pH 6 8.5, it is colorless; in solutions of pH 7 8.5, it is deep red-purple. Account for thechange in color.
Phenolphthalein indicator is a weak acid with Ka = 10-9 mol/dm-3. It is colourless while its conjugate base is pink in solution.
Calculate the ratio of the number of pink particles to the number of colourless particles of this indicator in a solution of pH = 9
For strong acid and weak base titration,methyl orange is a suitable indicator whereas phenolphthalein is not.Justify the statement.Can equivalence point be determined experimentally?

Despite the best efforts of the emergency workers, several of the crates containing lead nitrate were damaged, and the highly soluble compound dissolved immediately. Assuming the lake is initially at circumneutral pH (7), and that the spill resulted the in a total lead concentration of 10-3 M within the lake. Based on the following information, will PbO(s) precipitate out of Blue Lake. Assume all lead nitrate dissociates into Pb+2 and NO3-, no other sources of lead exist in the lake and that no other reactions besides the equations shown below occur.

Because bromocresol green is an acid, it is convenient to represent its rather complex formula as HBCG. HBCG ionizes in water according to the following equation: HBCG + H2O ⇌ BCG- + H3O+ (yellow) (blue) a. Write the Ka expression for bromocresol green based on the equation above. b. When [BCG-] = [HBCG], then show that the expression simplifies to Ka = [H3O+]. If you know the pH of the solution, then the [H3O+] and Ka can be determined. c.

I have a practical of the MEASUREMENT USING PH METER, I don't know how to write the methodology. Here is the introduction: A pH meter is an electronic device mainly used for qualitative measurement, for thedetermination of acid and the basic value of a solution. Generally, it measures thehydrogen ion concentration/activity [H+] in a solution. It is denoted as:pH = - log10 [H+]In a pure water solution, the concentration of [H+] and [OH-] ions, respectively, rangefrom 1.0 x 10-1 M to 1.0 x 10-14 M. When [H+] is equal to [OH-] as when pure waterdissociates, the hydrogen ion concentration of pure water is equal to 1.0 x 10-7 M orpH = 7.00, defined as a neutral solution at 25°C, to be of temperaturedependent/endothermic dissociation.[H+] = [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-7 MWhen an ionic or polar substance is dissolved in water, it may change the relativenumbers of H+ and OH-.
