Titration is routine, useful laboratory technique that can be used to confirm the concentration of a particular reagent. For example, you used an acid-base titration to determine the strength of a common household product – vinegar. a) The completion of the acid-base titration was recognized by the use of an indicator. i) Define the term indicator. ii) (i) Name the indicator used in the acid-base titration and (ii) state the color changed that that particular indicator undergoes.

a) The completion of the acid-base titration was recognized by the use of an indicator. i) Define the term indicator.
ii) (i) Name the indicator used in the acid-base titration and (ii) state the color changed that that particular indicator undergoes.
b) The visual indication that a titration is complete is known as the endpoint of the titration.
i) The endpoint of a titration is related to the equivalence point of a titration. Define the term equivalence
point and explain why the endpoint and equivalence point of titration are not the same.
ii) Explain the mathematical significance of the equivalence point. As part of your answer, write the key equation that is true at the end of the titration of vinegar with the analysis solution.
