(a) [In (b) pH= pk,-1 (c) both (a) and (b)
[HIn] 10 (d) none of these
112. In the above case colour of the ionised form (In ) is observed when:
(a) [In ] =10 (b) pH= pk,+1 (c) both (a) and (b)
[HIn] (d) none of these
II3. Select correct statements about indicators:
(a) near the equivalence point pH= pk, for weak/acid indicator and pH = (14- pk,) for weak
base indicator
(b) most indicators have a transition range of two pH units
(C) methylorange assumes quinonoid form in acid solution
(d) allthe statements are correct
114. pkin of the indicator is 10. At the equivalence point pH is:
(a) 5 (b) 10 (c) 7.5 (d) 7.0
115. An indicator is aweak acid and pH range of its colour is 3to 5. If the neutral pointsof the indicator
lies in the centre of the hydrogen ion concentration corresponding to given pH range then pH at the
equivalence
(a) 3.3
points is: (b) 4.0 (c) 7.0 (d) 5.0
10. Suitable indicator to be used in the titration of weak acid versus strong base is:
(a) phenolphthalein (b) thymophthalein (c) both (a) and (b) (d) none of these
