What is a suitable indicator for the titration of formic acid with NaOH? Give a brief example to your explanation.
Indicators in Titrations
Indicators are used in titrations as a visual indication of the equivalence point as they usually change color with pH or other factors. A commonly used example is bromophenol blue, which is used as it changes from yellow to blue around pH 3.
