always arranged as a pair. D Question 6 1 pts A bacterial stain is made up of three components. Two of the components, a benzene ring a colorless solvent) and a chromophore (imparts color to benzene ring), go together to form the chromogen. However, most bacterial stains also need a third component to convey ionization to the chromogen, which allows it to form a salt and bind to fibers or tissues. What is the name of this third chemical group that imparts the property of ionization to the chromogen?

Explanation / Answer

Auxochrome is that compound which imparts property of ionization to the chromogen.Ionization of chromogen means providing it positive or negative charge to chromogen that makes binding of dye to the tissues with opposite charges.
