Interpretation:
The function of acid base indicator with equilibrium needs to be identified.
Concept introduction:
When the change in concentrations of reactants and products is same and their concentration become constant then the system is said to be in equilibrium.

Answer to Problem 6RE
An acid base indicator indicates the alterations in the equilibrium of reaction.
Explanation of Solution
The substances which respond to an alteration in the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution are known as acid-base indicators. Through a color change, one can recognize this change most often.
Whether a solution is acidic or basic, one can identify by a numeric scale known as pH. A pH value smaller than 7 is acidic, whereas pH values higher than 7 is basic. A pH equal to 7 is neutral.
When a change in equilibrium to the weak acid and its conjugate base takes place, the change in pH takes place and when the hydrogen ion concentration changes, a shift in equilibrium occurs takes place.
This shift in equilibrium due to change in pH can be indicated by acid-base indicators by change in color of the solution.
For example: For a weak acid indicator, the color for an acid and its conjugate base will be different. Similarly, if indicator is a weak base, different color will be displayed by the base and its conjugate acid.

- A student proposes the transformation below in one step of an organic synthesis. There may be one or more products missing from the right-hand side, but there are no reagents missing from the left-hand side. There may also be catalysts, small inorganic reagents, and other important reaction conditions missing from the arrow. • Is the student's transformation possible? If not, check the box under the drawing area. • If the student's transformation is possible, then complete the reaction by adding any missing products to the right-hand side, and adding required catalysts, inorganic reagents, or other important reaction conditions above and below the arrow. • You do not need to balance the reaction, but be sure every important organic reactant or product is shown. + This transformation can't be done in one step.

During fermentation, bacteria produce lactic acid (K₁ = 1.4 x 104), a weak acid that helps to curdle the milk and develop flavor. The cheesemaker has measured that the developing mixture contains lactic acid at an initial concentration of 0.025 M. Your task is to calculate the pH of this mixture and determine whether it meets the required acidity for proper cheese development. To achieve the best flavor, texture and reduce/control microbial growth, the pH range needs to be between pH 4.6 and 5.0. Assumptions: Lactic acid is a monoprotic acid H H :0:0: H-C-C H :0: O-H Figure 1: Lewis Structure for Lactic Acid For simplicity, you can use the generic formula HA to represent the acid You can assume lactic acid dissociation is in water as milk is mostly water. Temperature is 25°C 1. Write the K, expression for the dissociation of lactic acid in the space provided. Do not forget to include state symbols.…arrow_forward
