Problem

In a titration involving 24.0 cm324.0\text{ cm}^3 of potassium hydroxide solution against a solution containing 1 mol dm−31\text{ mol dm}^{-3} sulfuric acid, 28.0 cm328.0\text{ cm}^3 of the acid was found to just neutralise the alkali completely. (a) Write a word and balanced chemical equation for the reaction. (b) Name a suitable indicator for the titration and state the colour change you would observe. (c) Calculate the concentration of the alkali in mol dm−3\text{mol dm}^{-3}. (d) Describe a chemical test which you could use to identify the type of salt produced during the reaction.
