A student determines the concentration of a sample of nitric acid by titrating it against a standard solution of potassium hydroxide.
25.0 cm3 of the nitric acid is measured into a conical flask, and a few drops of phenolphthalein indicator are added.
Potassium hydroxide solution is slowly run into the flask from a burette until the reaction reaches its end point.
Describe the colour change observed in the conical flask at the end point of this titration.
