Joshua is showing a bacterium having high pH requirement for its growth. With this, he
has to prepare a minimal medium at pH 9. Adding 0.5 ml of the pH indicator to 10 ml of
the medium, the solution remained colorless. The pH of the medium was adjusted using
2.25 ml of the 0.05 N titrant.
c.1. What was the pH indicator used by Joshua?
c.2. What was the titrant he used?
describe the liquid growth analysis in detail.
