Question

What is an advantage and disadvantage of using 4.5-7.5 pH paper?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer would be:

Advantage: helps in finding the exact ph value with a narrower range.

Disadvantage: You don't know the exact ph value on a regular scale.

Explanation:

The pH paper is a pH paper with a color indicator that helps in determining the pH value precisely between the 4.5 to 7.5 pH range. It is accurate in comparison to other pH papers such as 0-14 paper. One no need to guess the color between the different colors from various color mixtures as it has a more precise color reading that helps in finding accurate pH value in a narrow range.

On a regular scale, it is not as accurate and one can not find the exact value as it provides a narrow range value between 4.5 to 7.5.
