Following is the titration curve of CH_3 COOHagainst NaOH added with phenolphthalein as the indicator. K_("in") value of phenolphthalein is 4.0 xx 10^(10) Choose the incorrect statement.

Answer»

It begins to change colour from the pH 9.4.
It begins to change colour from acid (COLOURLESS) at pH 8.4 to the base form (reddish PINK) at pH 10.4.
Phenolphthalein is suitable indicator for `CH_3 COOH-NaOH` titration.
Phenolphthalein is a weak acid.

Solution :`pK_a=- logK_(In )= 10 - log4=9.4`
thus, it isthe equivalencepointpH .colourchangestartsfrom`(pK_(I n) -1)` andcompleteat `(pK_(I n )+1)`
