Expert Solution

Solution precursor plasma spraying (SPPS) presents a modern route to deposit coatings directly from liquid feedstock. In this study, unique ability of SPPS to intermix different precursors on the atomic scale was employed to deposit pure and Cr-doped Al O (technically, synthetic ruby) from several mixtures of aluminum and chromium nitrates. Highly porous coatings (> 60% porosity) were deposited by high-enthalpy WSP-H torch. Homogeneous distribution of Cr atoms in Al O resulted in coatings color ranging from pink to grayish-green correlated with increasing Cr content and change of lattice parameters as observed by x-ray diffraction. High content of over 80 wt.% of α-alumina phase was reached for all coatings. For the Cr-doped Al O coatings, distinct and fully reversible thermochromic behavior was observed by temperature-resolved colorimetry. Further increase in α-phase content (up to 95 wt.%) and coating densification were achieved by additional surface remelting by plasma torch.

Phenolphhalein indicator is used in this experiment because it changes color in the pH range of 8.0 to 9.6. Show by calculation that phenolphthalein is an acceptable indicator for the titration of KHP with NaOH. This is true if the pH at the equivalence point falls within this range. In essence, what you need to do is to calculate the pH of the unprotonated phthalate salt. You may assume that the concentration of the salt is approximately 0.05 M at...
