Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of using an indicator in a direct titration?

  • To act as a catalyst for the reaction
  • To measure the concentration of the titrant
  • To ensure the reaction goes to completion
  • To determine the end point of the reaction (correct)
  • What is the main advantage of using a primary standard in a titration?

  • It eliminates the need for an indicator
  • It allows for a back-titration to be performed
  • It makes the titration process faster and more efficient
  • It ensures the titrant concentration is known precisely (correct)
  • In a back-titration, what is the purpose of the initial reaction between the sample and a known excess of reagent?

  • To generate a product that can be titrated (correct)
  • To completely consume the analyte
  • To eliminate the need for an indicator
  • To produce a coloured complex
