A scientist is using bromthymol blue to analyze a solution. what is the scientist most likely doing?

1 answer:

6 0

I believe the scientist wants to test for the presence of carbonic acid in the solution. Bromthymol blue is a PH indicator and is mostly used in applications that require measuring substances that would have a relatively neutral pH. A common measure is for the measuring the presence of carbonic acid in a liquid.
It may be used for observing photosynthetic activities, or as a respiratory indicator. As a carbon dioxide is absorbed from the breath into the solution, forming carbonic acid, the solution changes color from green to yellow.

What are the interaction between the circulatory and respiratory organ systems in a human?

Oliga [24]

Hello! The interaction between the two system is an inter-dependent relationship. An example of this is that the heart pumps arterial blood to the circulation. The deoxygenated or venous blood returns to the lung where blood is oxygenated. Then the blood flows into the heart chambers and the cycle continues on.

When a pigment molecule in a light-harvesting complex absorbs a photon of light, what happens to its excited-state electron?.

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

When a pigment molecule in a light-harvesting complex absorbs a photon of light, While returning to its ground state, the electron transfers some of the energy from its excited state to an electron in a nearby pigment molecule.

It takes a photon of light energy some distance before it reaches a pigment molecule like chlorophyll.
An electron in the chlorophyll is "activated" by the photon. The energy imparted to the electron then moves from one pigment molecule to another until it reaches the reaction center, a pair of chlorophyll a molecules.
An electron in the reaction center is then excited by this energy, causing it to break loose and travel to the primary electron acceptor.
Therefore, it is said that the reaction center "donates" one electron to the main electron acceptor.
