Rahul experimented, as shown in the following figure. He took some solutions and added phenolphthalein indicators to them. Identify the X, Y and Z in this experiment.

  1. X → Acid, Y → Base, Z → Acid
  2. X → Base, Y → Acid, Z → Base
  3. X → Base, Y → Acid, Z → Acid
  4. X → Acid, Y → Base, Z → Base

hintHint:

Phenolphthalein turns colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions.

The correct answer is: X → Base, Y → Acid, Z → Base


    Phenolphthalein is often used as an indicator in acid–base titrations. It turns colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions.
    X- Base
    Y- Acid
    Z- Base
