Answer / sarma dvv

Phenolpthalein indicator pH range = 8.2 To 10.0.
In this pH region only Phenolpthalein indicator shows pink

In acid base titration, Hcl neutralisation by NaOH,after
completion of neutralisation,affition of next drop of NAOH
the pH of the solution will be above 8.2. for this reason

Answer / arti naik

The pink colour appears due to the change in the structure
