Acid-base indicators are substances that change color in response to changes in pH, allowing the determination of the acidic or basic nature of a solution. They are commonly used in titrations to signal the endpoint of a reaction.
pH: A measure of the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution, defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration.
Titration: A laboratory method used to determine the concentration of an analyte by reacting it with a standard solution.
Equivalence Point: The point in a titration at which the amount of titrant added is exactly enough to completely neutralize or react with the analyte.
