Which of the following statements is INCORRECT?

1 point

  • The absence of the band at 550 nm in the low pH spectrum is caused by increased conjugation at that pH value.
  • Phenolphthalein has increased conjugation at pH 13.
  • Phenolphthalein is coloured at pH 13.
  • The strong band at 240 nm is not responsible for the colour observed at
