Iodimetric titrations are usually performed in neutral or mildly alkaline (pH = 8) or weakly acidic solutions. Which statement is not valid for this observation ?

A

In strong alkaline solution `I_(2)` disproportinate to `I^(-)` and `IO^(-)`

B

In strong acidic solutions starch used to detect the end point tens to hydrolyse or decomposed

C

`I^(-)` produced during titration tends to be oxidised by dissolved oxygen in acidic medium.

D

Reducing power of reducing agent is increased in strong acidic medium.

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
