2. Indicators are typically weak acids and the equilibrium can be described as follows: HInd+ H₂O H₂O+ + Ind- AH=-2 kJ/mol Assume that HInd is red in color and Ind- is blue in color. b) If a solution is purple (equal concentrations of the two species), what color will the solution turn when some NaOH or other strong base is added to the solution? Explain in terms of the Le Chatelier's principle. b) If a solution is purple (equal concentrations of the two species), what color will the solution turn when the system is cooled in an ice bath? Explain in terms of the Le Chatelier's principle.
