Define a dilute solution of potassium hydroxide

Reference no: EM13536463

Use the following experimental titration data to calculate the unknown concentration and pH of the acid.

Observation:

The initial solution of acetic acid is clear and colourless. A few drops of phenolphthalein indicator are added to each sample. A dilute solution of potassium hydroxide is used as the titrant. As the mixture reaches the endpoint, flashed of pink colour are seen and the titrant is added drop by drop. The endpoint is reached when one drop of titrant turns the mixture a pale pink colour that does not fade.
