Ram can see the purple colour of an acid...

Ram can see the purple colour of an acidic indicator below `pH=5.5` only and the blue colour only above `pH=8.50` .How many times that of acidic form, must the concentration of the basic form at least be for Ram to see the end point of titration of `HCl` with `NaOH`?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`DeltapH=8.50-5.5=3`
`rArr (pK_("In")+(log)(["Basic"])/(["Acidic form"]))-(pK_("In")+(log)(["Basic"])/(["Acidic form"]))=3`
`rArr 2(log)(["Basic form"])/(["Acidic form"])=10xxlog2 rArr(log)(["Basic form"])/(["Acidic form"])=log 2^(5)`
`rArr ["Basic form"]=32["Acidic form"]`

An indicator is a weak acid and pH range of its colour is 3 to 5 . If the neutral point of the indicator lies in the centre of the [H^(+)] corresponding to given pH range, then pH at the equivalence point is

An indicator has pK_(In)=5.3 . In a certain titration, this indicator is found to be 80% ionized in its acid form. Thus, pH of the solution is

The rapid change of pH near the stoichiometric point of an acid-base titration is the basic of indicator detection. pH of the solution is related to the ratio of the concentration of conjugate acid (Hin) and base (In^(-)) forms of the indicator by the expression
