Which indicator would best distinguish between a solution with a ph of 3.5 and a solution with a ph of 5.5?
(1) bromthymol blue (3) litmus
(2) bromcresol green (4) thymol blue

The pH range of given indicators are

i) bromothymol blue : 6 (yellow) to  7.6 (blue) : so it cannot be used for the given condition

ii) litmus : it senses the change between acid and base. blue litmus turns red in acidic medium (from basic or neutral) however here both the solutions are acidic so we cannot use it

iii) bromocresol green : the pH range is 3.8-5.4. Below 3.8 it is yellow and above 5.4 it is blue

thus we can use it for two solutions as

a) in solution of pH = 3.5 it will show yellow colour

b) in solution of pH =5.5 it will show blue colour

hence answer is Bromocresol green

iv) thymol blue: pH rang is 6.0 - 7.6, so cannot be used

more info ? ? i don't understand what the question is

explanation:

c-14 is carbon-14, or radiocarbon.   it is a radioactive isotope of carbon with an atomic nucleus containing 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
