Before glass electrodes and pH meters became widely used, pH was often determined by measuring the concentration
Question:
Before glass electrodes and pH meters became widely used, pH was often determined by measuring the concentration of the acid and base forms of the indicator colorimetrically. If bromothymol blue is introduced into a solution and the concentration ratio of acid to base form is found to be 1.45, what is the pH of the solution?
Step by Step Answer:
Solution The indicator is formed by the oxidation of bromot...View the full answer

A substance that alters color in solution over a constrained range of pH values is known as a pH indicator or acid-base indicator. The indicator chemical just needs to alter color slightly in order to be noticed. Indicators work on the basis that they react with water to produce the hydrogen cation H+ or hydronium ion H3O+. The indicator molecule\\\'s color changes as a result of the reaction. Since indicators have distinct color ranges for color change, they can occasionally be combined to provide color changes over a wider pH range.
