Concept explainers
Interpretation:
To predict the structure of the coloured compound when the given colourless compound come in contact with the acid treated sheet.
Concept introduction:
Acid-base indicators are the compounds which changetheir colour on changing the pH. The reaction of the acid-base indicator can be represented by:
In organic compounds chromophoreis the unsaturated part that imparts colour. An auxochrome is a
