Question
Name the stain which is commonly used to study plant cells.
✓

Answer

  1. Safranin.
Explanation:
Safranin is a staining agent used in histology and cytology to color the cells and visualize them under the microscope. Safranin reacts with lignin and stains it red. Therefore, only the lignified tissues such as xylem and sclerenchyma are turned red and all other tissues like parenchyma, collenchyma, and phloem remain colorless.

During an experiment hydrogen $(H_2)$ and oxygen $(O_2)$ gases reacted in an electric are to produce water as follows: $2\text{H}+\text{O}_2\xrightarrow{\text{Eletricity}}2\text{H}_2\text{O}$ The experiment is repeated three times and data tabulated as shown below:
Elperiment number Mass of $H_2$ reacted Mass of $O_2$ reacted Mass of $H_2$  Oproduced
$1$ $2g$ $16g$ $18g$
$2$ $4g$ $32g$ $36g$
$3$ $-$ $-$ $9g$
During $3rd$ experiment the researcher forgot to list masses of $H_2$ and $O_2$ used. So, if the law of constant proportion is correct then find mass of $O_2$ used during $3rd$ experiment.
