Ph indicator. a dye that is an acid and that appears as different colors in its protonated and deprotonated forms can be used as a ph indicator. suppose that you have a 0.001 m solution of a dye with a p ka of 7.2. from the color, the concentration of the protonated form is found to be 0.0002 m. assume that the remainder of the dye is in the deprotonated form. what is the ph of the solution? berg, jeremy m.. biochemistry (p. 24). w. h. freeman. kindle edition.

pH = 7.8

Explanation:

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation may be used to solve the problem:

pH = pKa + log([A⁻] / [HA])

The solution of concentration 0.001 M is a formal concentration, which means that it is the sum of the concentrations of the different forms of the acid. In order to find the concentration of the deprotonated form, the following equation is used:

[HA] + [A⁻] = 0.001 M

[A⁻] = 0.001 M - 0.0002 M = 0.0008 M

The values can then be substituted into the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = 7.2 + log(0.0008M/0.0002M) = 7.8

i think 4.44 moles

odds are decent that your handwriting right now looks a little bit different than it did five years ago, and will look different again in five more. when i look back through my notebooks from middle school to now, i see a long, slow progression from meticulous and teeny letters to bigger, sloppier ones, plus a few side detours: sometime in high school, for example, i decided those loopy cursive lowercase f’s were just the coolest, adopting them as the lone rep for cursive in my otherwise all-print handwriting.
