Answer (i) & (ii) showing all steps

(f) (1) Define an acid according to Bronsted and Lowry.
(ii) Phenolphthalein indicator represented by HIn, is a weak acid that dissociates in water as follows:
Hln(aq) + H*(aq)+ In (aq)
Colourless
red colour
Explain the colour change observed at the end point of an acid-base titration where phenolphthalein is used as indicator with the
acid in the conical flask.
(iii) The pH range of phenolphthalein is 8.2 - 10. Give an acid and an alkali for which phenolphthalein is suitable as an indicator
during titration
(iv) The OH- ion concentration in a dilute ammonia solution is 0.0025 M.Calculate the pH of the solutions
