Beta-carotene absorbs strongly in the UV and visible regions between 400-500nm, peaking at 470nm. It is orange because its conjugated double bond structure absorbs blue and green light. 3. Phenolphthalein exists in two forms - colorless at low pH and magenta at high pH. Adding alkali delocalizes electrons in the structure, causing it to absorb differe
