Question 1

What determines the pH of a solution immediately after reaching the equivalence point when titrating a weak base with a strong acid?

A) The concentration of the strong acid present
B) The concentration of the weak base present
C) The initial pH of the weak base
D) The volume of acid added

💡 Hint: Think about what happens after all of the weak base is consumed.

Question 2

True or False: The equivalence point for a weak base and strong acid titration is always neutral (pH = 7).

True
False

💡 Hint: Consider the properties of the resulting conjugate acid.
