Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The chromatic scale is a scale that contains all 12 pitches found in Western music. One octave of chromatic notes would consist of the following pitches: C. C♯/D♭
Detailed explanation-2: -In the western musical scale, there are 12 notes in every octave. These notes are evenly distributed (geometrically), so the next note above A, which is B flat, has frequency 440 × where is the twelfth root of two, or approximately 1.0595.
Detailed explanation-3: -In music, the term cents is used to describe a difference in pitch. An octave has 1200 cents, and therefore in our 12-tone scale consisting of equally-spaced notes, each note is 100 cents apart.
