Describe how to use universal indicator to test the pH of a substance.
查看答案
答案
To measure the pH of a substance with universal indicator: (Universal indicator paper can also be used).
闪卡 10
问题
Why is universal indicator not used measure pH during titrations?
查看答案
答案
Universal indicator is not used for titrations as it does not give a sharp colour change which is required to identify the end-point.

答案
When an acid and alkali react the products are water, H2O, and a salt.
闪卡 15
问题
State the net ionic equation for neutralisation.
查看答案
答案
The net ionic equation for neutralisation is: H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) ⟶ H2O (l)

问题
What type of reaction occurs when an acid and an alkali react?
查看答案
答案
The type of reaction that occurs when an acid and alkali react is neutralisation.
闪卡 17
问题
True or False? All reactions of acids are neutralisations.
查看答案
答案
False. Not all reactions of acids are neutralisations. For example, when a metal reacts with an acid, although a salt is produced, there is no water formed, so it does not fit the definition of neutralisation.

True or False? The lower the pH, the more acidic the solution.
查看答案
答案
True. The lower the pH, the more acidic the solution is.

问题
What is an acid-base titration used for?
查看答案
答案
An acid-base titration is a method used to determine the concentration of an unknown acid or alkali.
闪卡 22
问题
What is the purpose of the indicator in a titration?
查看答案
答案
The indicator is used to identify the endpoint of the titration by changing colour sharply when the reaction is complete.
闪卡 23
问题
True or False? Leaving a funnel in the burette during a titration is acceptable.
查看答案
答案
False. The funnel should be removed from the burette before starting the titration, as it can drip liquid into the burette, making the initial reading false.
闪卡 24
问题
Why is it important to repeat a titration?
查看答案
答案
Repeating a titration and achieving concordant results increases the accuracy of the measurement.
闪卡 25
问题
State what is meant by the term endpoint.
查看答案
答案
The point at which an indicator changes colour sharply during a titration, signalling the completion of the reaction.
闪卡 26
问题
What is the purpose of swirling the flask during a titration?
查看答案
答案
Swirling the flask during a titration ensures thorough mixing of the solutions and helps to identify the endpoint more accurately.
