A indicator is a weak organic acid or a base which has shows different colors in acidic and basic mediums. The color change occurs when the weak acidic or basic indicator dissociates to give its respective conjugate base or conjugate acid.

Therefore the correct option would be Indicators are weak acids or bases.

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A substance that gives a visible change in color upon exposure to certain conditions is known as an indicator. Indicators are either weak acids or bases.

For example, phenolphthalein is an acid-base indicator which changes its color from colorless to pink in a basic solution at pH 8.2.

In a more basic solution, its color changes to bright purple.

Hence, indicators do not maintain their colors across the range of pH values for which they are used.

A pH meter tells exactly the pH value of a solution or substance. Whereas an indicator only tells whether a solution is acidic or basic.

Therefore, we can conclude that it is true about indicators that they are weak acids or bases.

How many grams of P4O10 (292.88 g/mol) form when phelpsphorous (P4, 125.52 g/mol) reacts with 16.2 L of O2 (33.472 g/mol) ) at s
nevsk [136]

Answer:

40.5 g of P₄O₁₀ are produced

Explanation:

We state the reaction:

P₄ + 5O₂ → P₄O₁₀

We do not have data from P₄ so we assume, it's the excess reactant.

We need to determine mass of oxygen and we only have volumne so we need to apply density.

Density = mass / volume, so Mass = density . volume

Denstiy of oxygen at STP is: 1.429 g/L

1.429 g/L . 16.2L = 23.15 g

We determine the moles: 23.15 g . 1mol / 33.472g = 0.692 moles

5 moles of O₂ can produce 1 mol of P₄O₁₀

Our 0.692 moles may produce (0.692 . 1)/ 5 = 0.138 moles

We determine the mass of product:

0.138 mol . 292.88 g/mol = 40.5 g

Why is an atom electrically neutral?
Orlov [11]

Electrons have electric charge of -1 and the number of electrons in an atom is equal to the number of protons. ... Heavier atoms tend to have more neutrons than protons, but the number of electrons in an atom is always equal to the number of protons. So an atom as a whole is electrically neutral.

Where dose light of the moon come from
timama [110]

Answer:

The Moon gets its light from the Sun. In the same way that the Sun illuminates Earth, the Moon reflects the Sun's light, making it appear bright in our sky. Have your child hold the fruit at arm's length, pointing at the light.

hope this helps :)
