Question

What is the function of an indicator in a titration?

Answer 1

$\mathbb{\huge{\pink{ANSWER}}}$

Chemical indicator, any substance that gives a visible sign, usually by a colour change, of the presence or absence of a threshold concentration of a chemical species, such as an acid or an alkali in a solution. An example is the substance called methyl yellow, which imparts a yellow colour to an alkaline solution.

Answer 2

Indicator: A substance that changes color in response to a chemical change. An acid–baseindicator (e.g., phenolphthalein) changes color depending on the pH. Redox indicators are also used. A drop of indicator solution is added to the titration at the beginning; the endpoint has been reached when the color changes.
