Maya, a student, performs a titration. She completes the following steps as part of her titration procedure.1. She cleans and rinses a burette with base solution.2. She fills the burette with standardized base solution.3. She adds a base from a burette to an acid.4. She observes a color change in the Erlenmeyer flask.5. She continues to add more base.Based on the above procedure, will she obtain accurate results?

A
Yes, because the more base there is, the better the results will be.
B
No, because she initially contaminated the burette with base.
C
Yes, because she used a standardized base solution in the burette.
D
No, because she did not stop adding base once the color changed.
4

Which is a disadvantage of using chemical indicators?

A
They are expensive to use.
B
They measure pH directly.
C
They must be selected for a narrow pH range.
D
They do not use electricity to operate.
5

Which step accurately describes how to measure the final burette volume?

A
Locate the bottom of the meniscus and record volume to the nearest 0.01 mL.
B
Locate the bottom of the meniscus and record volume to the nearest 0.1 mL.
C
Locate the top of the meniscus and record volume to the nearest 0.01 mL.
D
Locate the top of the meniscus and record volume to the nearest 0.1 mL.

A chemist is about to perform a titration by adding a base to an acid. What is the most important reason for using a base instead of water to rinse out the burette?

A
to make sure the burette is not blocked
B
to prevent any bacteria from growing in the burette
C
to make sure the base will flow quickly though the burette
D
to prevent dilution of the base, which may affect the results
7

When are drops of indicator most likely added to the Erlenmeyer flask?

A
