Best indicator to detect end point in complete titration of 20 mL of 0.1 M against 0.2 M HCl is - [For : = 4 × ; = 5 × ]

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Complete titration needs 2 × 2 mmol = 4 mmol HCl = 20 mL of 0.2 M HCl. The end point solution is 2 mmol in 40 mL = 0.05 M.

pH = ½( - log C) = ½(6.4 + 1.3) = 3.85.

The indicator with pKin closest to this pH is methyl orange (3.7).

Answer: (C).
