What is general criteria of chossing a suitable indicator for a given titration?

A

The indicator should have a broad `pH` range.

B

`pH` at the end point of titration should be close of neutral point of indicator

C

The indicator should have neutral point at `pH = 7`.

D

The indicator must show a sharp colour changes near the equivalence point of titration point.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, D

a. Wrong: Indicator should have a small transition range.
b. Correct: `pH` at equivalence point `~~pH_(Ind)`
c. Wrong: `pH` at equivalence point and at the end point may be different.
d. Correct: Factual statement.

What is Arnon's criteria?

In acid-base titration react rapidly to neutralise each other. Equivalence point is a point at which the acid and the base (or oxidising agent and reducing agent) have beem added in equivalent quantities. The end point in the point at which the titration stops. since the purpose of the indicator is to stop the titration close to the point at which the acid and base were added in equivalent quantities, it is important that the equivalent point and the end point be as close as must change colour at a pH close to that of a solution of the salt of the acid base. Singificantly, the pH changes most rapidly near the equivalent point. The exact shape of a titration curve depends on K_(a) and K_(b) of acid and base. The suitable indicator for the titration is

Calculate the pH of the mixture formed by the addition of 5,9,9.5,9.9,9.95,10,10.05 and 10.1 mL of 0.5MKOH solution to 100 mL of 0.05 HBr solution. What will be the most suitable indicator for this titration ?
