Q1. WHAT IS NEUTRALIZATION? WHICH INDICATORIS USED FOR THIS PURPOSE? HOW DOES THISINDICATOR HELP? WRITE THREE EXAMPLES OFNEUTRALIZATION REACTION.​

Answer»

Answer:

  • Neutralization indicators, or acid-base indicators or pH indicators, are auxiliary reagents added to the titrand solution in order to DETECT the equivalence point in acid-base titrations. ... Tournesol, a natural PIGMENT extracted from some blue-green lichens, was the first pH indicator to be used (1850).
  • Phenolphthalein
  • The indicator which is generally used to observe neutralization reaction is Phenolphthalein. Phenolphthalein is chosen because it changes color in a pH range between 8.3 – 10.
  • Hint: The neutralization reaction is the one in which an acid reacts with an EQUIMOLAR amount of base to give salt and water. The EXAMPLE could be a reaction between any strong acid and a base. The sodium chloride formed is a RESULT of neutralization reaction.
