摘要
In this study we propose the use of a natural indicator obtained from the seeds of plant found abundantly in the southern of Bahia, Brazil, Theobroma cacao L. (cocoa). The extract containing the dyes from cocoa seed was applied as indicator in several acid/base titrations, and the results were compared with values obtained in potentiometric titrations and using phenolphthalein as an indicator of reference. The methodologies involving weak and strong acids were applied with chemistry graduate students of State University of Santa Cruz in Ilheus, Bahia, Brazil.
