Interpretation: Bromocresol green is turn blue when dissolved in a base needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction: Le Chatelier’s principles, also known as the equilibrium law, are used to predict the effect of some changes on a system in
Answer to Problem 6E
Since, equilibrium in basic solution favored the formation of product ions
Explanation of Solution
In bromocresol green colour of HIn is yellow and
If a base is added to a solution with an indicator, then concentration of
After adding base on bromocresol equilibrium shifts towards the product. So, the colour is blue.
