Acid is slowly added to a basic solution. The pink colour of phenolphthalein finally disappears. What point can this indicate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Reaching near neutralisation

Phenolphthalein is pink in a sufficiently basic medium and becomes colourless when the pH falls below its transition range, roughly pH 8.2–10. As acid is added to the base, hydroxide ions are consumed in the neutralisation reaction H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O. Therefore disappearance of the pink colour indicates that the mixture has approached the indicator endpoint, usually near neutralisation. It does not prove metal formation, compulsory CO₂ production or salt vapour. Option A is correct.
