Answer 2

Answer:

A. What is the concentration of nitric acid?

Explanation:

Titrations are used to find the unknown concentration of a substance as the phenolphthalein indicator helps to indicate when there is enough base to neutralize the acid.

Using this information along with a chemical formula it is possible to work out the unknown concentration of the acid with the known volume you used of the base.

Hope this helps!
