Phenolphthalein reacts to basic solutions (pH above 7) by changing to a pink color. If you had phenolphthalein in both an acidic (~6 pH) solution and an even more acidic solution (~5 pH), which solution would take more NaOH (a basic substance) to turn the solution pink?

- Compare the percent dissociation of the acid in Exercise 21a with the percent dissociation of the acid in Exercise 21d. Explain the large difference in percent dissociation of the acid.arrow_forwardMethyl orange, HMO, is a common acid-base indicator. In solution it ionizes according to the equation: HMOaqH+aq+MO-aqredyellow If methyl orange is added to distilled water, the solution turns yellow. If 1 drop or two of 6 M HCl is added to the yellow solution, it turns red. If to that solution one adds a few drops of 6 M NaOH, the color reverts to yellow. a. Why does adding 6 M HCl to the yellow solution of methyl orange tend to cause the color to change to red? Note that in solution HCl exists as H+ and Cl- ions. b. Why does adding 6 M NaOH to the red solution tend to make it turn back to yellow? Note that in solution NaOH exists as Na+ and OH- ions.

- You have chosen Methylamine as your weak base in the buffer solution. You have already added enough of the conjugate acid salt to make the buffer solution concentration at 0.48 M in this salt. The desired pH of the buffer should be equal to 9.75. To prepare the buffer, a total volume of 550 mL is required. The stock solution of the weak base is available at 1 gallon with a concentration of 0.98 M. (Remember the lesson on dilution: C1V1=C2V2) 4.
