9.6 Is it possible to find the nature of an unknown solution using phenolphthalein as an indicator
Answers
Answer:
Phenolphthalein is often used as an indicator in acid–base titrations. For this application, it turns colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions.Phenolphthalein is a Synthetic Acid-Base indicators. Which reacts with acid to be colourless and when it reacts with Base it then be of Pink color. Hence, the given unknown solution A may be BASIC in nature which results to change the color of Phenolphthalein to pink. While the solution B may be of acidic nature.A strong acid- strong base titration is performed using a phenolphthalein indicator. Phenolphtalein is chosen because it changes color in a pH range between 8.3 – 10. It will appear pink in basic solutions and clear in acidic solutions. ... Neutralization is the basis of titration.
