Explanation Explanation The indicators that could be used for the titration of HCl and Ba ( OH ) 2 are Phenol red, Bromothymol blue or Cresol red. An indicator is a weak acid that remains in equilibrium with its conjugate base as, HIn ( a q ) + H 2 O ( l ) ⇌ H 3 O + ( a q ) + In − ( a q ) These acid and conjugate base have different colors. When the value of pH is low, at that time the concentration of H 3 O + is high and therefore, equilibrium shifts in the left direction and the color of HIn in the solution. On the other hand, when the value of pH is high, then equilibrium shifts towards the right direction and the solution shows the color of In − . In Exercise 58 a strong acid HCl is titrated with a strong base Ba ( OH ) 2 . As the Ba ( OH ) 2 is added to HCl , the solution starts becoming basic in nature due to the addition of a strong base. Therefore, the indicators used are Phenol red, Bromothymol blue or Cresol red, as they lie in the pH range of 6.7 − 8.2 . Explanation The indicators that could be used for the titration of HNO 3 and H 2 NNH 2 are Methyl red, Bromocresol green

Imagine an electrochemical cell based on these two half reactions with electrolyte concentrations as given below: Oxidation: Pb(s) → Pb2+(aq, 0.10 M) + 2 e– Reduction: MnO4–(aq, 1.50 M) + 4 H+(aq, 2.0 M) + 3 e– → MnO2(s) + 2 H2O(l) Calculate Ecell (assuming temperature is standard 25 °C).

: ☐ + Draw the Fischer projection of the most common naturally-occurring form of aspartate, with the acid group at the top and the side chain at the bottom. Important: be sure your structure shows the molecule as it would exist at physiological pH. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. ✓

For a silver-silver chloride electrode, the following potentials are observed: E°cell = 0.222 V and E(saturated KCl) = 0.197 V Use this information to find the [Cl–] (technically it’s the activity of Cl– that’s relevant here, but we’ll just call it “concentration” for simplicity) in saturated KCl.
