NO
|
|
What has a greater titration
Error a strong/strong titration Or a weak/strong titration? |
a weak/strong titration has a greater titration error
|
|
What is the pH at the
Equivalence point of a weak Acid with a strong base? |
pH > 7
|
|
What is the pH at the
Equivalence point of a weak base with a strong acid? |
pH < 7
|
|
What is an acid-base indicator?
|
Acid-base indicators are substances whose color in
Solution depends upon the pH. They are complex Organic compounds of large molar mass that are Themselves weak acids or weak bases. |
|
What are the uses of an
Acid-base indicator? |
1.) estimate the pH of an unknown solution
2.) determination of the end point in acid-base Titrations |
|
What is the ratio of In- and HIn Determined by?
|
the [H+] and Ka
|
|
What is the transition range of An indicator?
|
the transition range is the pH range that an indicator Will change within.
|
|
What factors affect the Indicator?
|
temperature, ionic strength, solvents other than
Transition range of a pH water, and colloidal particles. |
|
What do oxidation-reduction

the transfer of electrons.
|
|
What happens to a species that Is oxidized?
|
it loses electrons
|
|
What happens to a species that Is reduced?
|
it gains electrons

|
Oxidizing agents cause oxidation But actually undergo what?
|
they actually undergo reduction

|
Reducing agents cause reduction But actually undergo what?
|
they actually undergo oxidization
