The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the sharp change of color in an indicator at the endpoint of a titration, we can break down the explanation into clear steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Endpoint and Equivalence Point**: - In a titration, the endpoint is the point at which the reaction is complete, and the equivalence point is where the amount of titrant added is stoichiometrically equivalent to the amount of substance in the sample. 2. **Role of Indicators**: - An indicator is a chemical that changes color at a specific pH range. It is used to visually signal the endpoint of a titration. 3. **pH Change at the Endpoint**: - At the endpoint of a titration, there is a significant change in the pH of the solution. This is due to the neutralization reaction that occurs, which can lead to a rapid shift in the acidity or basicity of the solution. 4. **Sharp Color Change**: - The sharp change in color of the indicator occurs because the pH of the solution changes rapidly at the equivalence point. The indicator will change color at a specific pH, and when the pH crosses this threshold, a noticeable color change is observed. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the sharp change of color in the indicator at the endpoint is due to the sharp change in pH that occurs at this point in the titration. ### Final Answer: The sharp change of color in the indicator at the endpoint happens because of the sharp change in pH at the equivalence point.

Acid-base indicator such as methy 1 orange, phenolphthalein, and bromothymol blue ate substances which change colour accroding to the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution to which they are added. Most indicators are weak acids (or more rarely weak base) in which the undissociated and dissociated forms have different and distinct colours. If methy 1 orange is used as the examples and the un-dissociated forms is written as HMO , then dissociation occurs as shown below: Reaction: {:(HMOhArr,H^(o+)+,MO^(Theta),,),(Red,"Colourless","Yellow",,):} The indicator should have a sharp colour change with the equivalence point of the titration. Usually the colour change of the indicator occurs over a range of about two pH units. It should be noted that the eye cannot detect the exact end point of the tiytration. The pK_(a) of the indicator should be near the pH of the solution at the equivalance point. Which of the following sitution exists at the equivalence point of titration?

The overall equation for the reaction between sodium carbonate solution and dilute hydrochloric acid is Na_(2)CO_(3)(aq.)+2HCl(aq.)rarrNaCl(aq)+CO_(2)(g)H_(2)O(l) If you had the two solutions of the same concentration, you would have to use double volume of HCl to reach the equivalence point. Indicators change their colours at the end point of the reaction and hence we are able to know the end points (equivalence points of reactions). 25 ml of Na_(2)CO_(3) solution requires 100 ml of 0.1 M HCl to reach end point with phenolphthalein indicator. Molarity of HCO_(3^(-)) ions in the resulting solution is

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 pH at equivalence point is
