Phenolphthalein is not a good indicator to use for a titration for a solution that has a ph of 6.0 at the equivalence point because the color change of the solution at this pH level is not sharp. It changes the color of the solution to pink starting from pH 8.3 to 10. A pH level lower than 8.3 would only show a colorless solution. Thus, you would not be able to distinguish whether the solution has reached its equivalence point at pH 6.0. It is best to use this indicator for a system that is using a strong base titrated with a weak acid.
Answer:
c. benzoic acid
Explanation:
The given reaction is an example of a Grignard reaction:
When chlorobenzene (C₆H₅Cl) reacts with Mg in ether, an intermediate is formed (C₆H₅MgCl).
Said intermediate then reacts with CO₂ producing a benzoic acid salt (C₆H₅CO₂X), this salt is then neutralized with dilute HCl producing benzoic acid (C₆H₅CO₂H).
