Explain why there is an uncertainty in pH values that are measured using universal indicator.

Please help!!

The chemical properties of many solutions enable them to be divided into three categories - acidic, alkaline and neutral solutions.

The pH scale is used to measure acidity and alkalinity:

solutions with a pH less than 7 are acidic

solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral

solutions with a pH greater than 7 are alkaline

If universal indicator is added to a solution it changes to a colour that shows the pH of the solution. Universal indicator is a mixture of a variety of other indicators and can be used to measure the approximate pH of a solution. A more accurate value can be obtained using a pH probe.

A coloured pH scale, ranging from dark red at pH 0, orange at pH 3, green at pH 7, blue at pH 10 to dark purple at pH 14.

2fe + 3h2so4 -> fe2(so4)3 + 3h2

it is necessary to balance equations in order to get the proper amount of reactants as well as products in order not to make a miscalculation.

you cannot change the subscripts as that would change the substance itself. for instance, diatomic elements such as h2 only have the subscript two when a gas. another example would be so4, if you were to change the subscript, the element would no longer be sulfate.

we change the coefficients instead as that only changes the number of molecules rather than the substance itself.

hope this !

indicate valleys, hills, steepness and gentleness of slopes.

explanation:

contour lines on a map indicate elevation, or depth. numeric notations on contour lines refer to the level of elevation, or height about sea level.
