Litmus paper is often used to determine the range of pH of an aqueous solution. Litmus paper specifically contains 10-15 natural dyes, in the presence of acidic solution it turns red, it turns purple when the solution is neutral and blue when dealing with basic solutions. Red litmus paper stays red for a neutral and acidic solution but changes to blue in the presence of alkaline solutions. On the other hand, blue litmus paper turns red when a solution is acidic but stays blue for neutral and alkaline solutions. Since the paper turns purple in the presence of solution 1 we know that is neutral, meanwhile, since it turns blue for the second solution we know that solution II is a base correct answer is C
Answer:
The pH of the solution is 8, 40-
Explanation:
The pH indicates the acidity or basicity of a substance. PH values between 0 and less than 7 indicate acidic solutions, 7 neutral and greater than 7 to 14 basic. It is calculated as
pH = -log (H30+)
pH= -log (4x10-9M)
<em>pH=8,40</em>
Answer: C
Explanation: Took the test
Answer:
The reason for covering the container is to make sure that the atmosphere in the beaker is saturated with solvent vapour. Saturating the atmosphere in the beaker with vapour stops the solvent from evaporating as it rises up the paper.
