Which chemicals detect carbon dioxide?

Chemical indicators that detect carbon dioxide include bromothymol blue, phenol red, and pH-sensitive dyes like universal indicator. These indicators change color in the presence of carbon dioxide due to a change in pH levels.


What happens if you add phenol red to water and blow in it with a straw?

Just did this in my BIO 100 lab at SDSU so I know this answer... Background: Phenol red is a pH indicator which is yellow in acidic solutions and red in basic solutions. When you blow into the water with the phenol red, you are adding Carbon Dioxide into the solution. Carbon Dioxide would make this solution more acidic. Therefore this presence of Carbon Dioxide would change the solution color from red to a more orange - yellow color. Hope that helps!


Phenol red turns what color when carbon dioxide is added?

Phenol red turns yellow in the presence of carbon dioxide due to the formation of carbonic acid. This acidic environment causes the phenol red indicator to shift from its original red color to a yellow hue.


Baking soda mixed with salt and phenol red makes what gas?

carbon dioxide


The major product obtained on interaction of phenol with sodium hydroxide and carbon dioxide is?

The major product obtained from the interaction of phenol with sodium hydroxide and carbon dioxide is sodium phenoxide. This is formed through the reaction between phenol and sodium hydroxide to give sodium phenolate, which further reacts with carbon dioxide to form sodium phenoxide and water.


How many atoms of each element are present in one molecule of phenol?

Simple phenol is mono hydroxy benzene and has the formula, C6H5OH So there are six carbon, six oxygen and one oxygen present in a molecule of phenol.


How will Calcium chloride react with phenol red and baking soda?

When Calcium chloride reacts with phenol red and baking soda, it will generate carbon dioxide gas. This reaction causes the phenol red to change color – it will turn from red to yellow as the pH decreases due to the formation of carbonic acid.


What happens when you add water phenol red and baking soda and a sodium bicarb buffer and blow into a straw?

When you blow into the straw, you exhale carbon dioxide which reacts with the water, phenol red, and sodium bicarbonate to form carbonic acid. This causes a color change in the phenol red indicator due to the change in pH from the carbonic acid production. The sodium bicarbonate buffer helps maintain a stable pH during the reaction.


What are the elements in Phenol?

There are three elements. They are carbon,hydrogen and oxygen.


How will you synthesis of phenol in small scale'?

There are many known syntheses of phenol. However, a few simple ones are: 1) hydrolysis of chlorobenzene: - chlorobenzene + water --> phenol + hydrochloric acid 2) oxidation of toluene: - toluene + oxygen --> phenol + carbon dioxide + water 3) oxidation of benzene with nitrous oxide: - benzene + nitrous oxide --> phenol + nitrogen


What does is mean when phenol red turns yellow in a experiment?

phenol red turns yellow because it reacts to carbonic acid, which is a product of carbon dioxide mixing with H2O, or water. Phenol red is a Ph indicator, but not a very good one, so it reacts to strong acids (yellow orange) and strong bases (pink) hope this helped!


How will you convert phenol into aspirin?

Aspirin (acetyl salycilic acid) is prepared from salycilic acid and acetic anhydride; salicylic acid is prepared from sodium phenoxide and carbon dioxide (Kolbe synthesis).
