Purple primrose in 0.1M HCl

Addding 0.2M sodium hydroxide. It shows the swirls of alkali as it is added to the solution as it nears the point of neutralisation

Purple Pansy in 0.1M HCl

0.2M sodium hydroxide is added dropwise

Purple Primrose extract at pH7

0.1M HCl is added to give the pink colouration, then 0.2M sodium hydroxide is added dropwise. The purple lines correspond to swirls of alkali as it added to the reaction

0.1M Copper sulfate with NaOH and ammonia

0.1M sodium hydroxide is added to form the precipitate of [Cu(H₂0)₄(OH)₂], then ammonia is added to form the [Cu(NH₃)₄(H₂0)₂]²⁺ ion.

Copper sulfate with ethylenediamine

Stoichiometric aliquots of ethylenediamine are added to copper sulfate then hydrochloric acid added to the reaction

Haloalkane hydrolysis using fluorescein

Using 2-chloro-2-methylpropane. This reaction is viewed under UV light. Emission of fluorescein is dependent on pH and is quenched as the reaction becomes more acidic

Hydrolysis of 2-chloro-2-methylpropane with phenolphthalein

The reaction procedes to produce an alcohol and hydrochloric acid, this causes the phenolphthalein to decolourise at low pH

Haloalkane hydrolysis with bromothymolblue indicator

Using 2-chloro-2-methylpropane. As hydroysis occurs, the reaction becomes more acidic - causing the indicator to turn from blue to yellow
