25.0 mL of 0.10 M () is titrated with 0.10 M HCl. Indicator ranges: methyl red 4.2-6.3; phenolphthalein 8.3-10.0. Select the correct statements.

  1. AMethyl red is a suitable indicator
  2. BPhenolphthalein is not suitable
  3. CThe pH at the equivalence point is about 5.28
  4. DThe pH at half-equivalence is about 4.74

Answer: A, B, C

At equivalence, M and pH , which lies in the range of methyl red, not phenolphthalein. At half-equivalence , so pH , not 4.74. Answer A, B, C.
