Q

Addition of acid

A

Increase in [H+]
Indicator equilibrium position will shift to the left to minimise the increase in [H+} by reacting H+ with A- to form more HA

Q

Addition of alkali

A

OH- + H+ —> H2O
Decrease in [H+]
Indicator equilibrium position will shift to the right to minimise the decrease in [H+]. More of the weak acid indicator will dissociate into H+ and A-

Q

The end point of an indicator

A

The PH at which there are equal concentrations of the weak acid and its conjugate base forms of the indicator
Colour of an indicator at its end point is mid way between the colours of the acid (HA) and conjugate base (A-) forms
