Question 1
In a titration of phosphoric acid (H3PO4, a triprotic acid) with NaOH, sketch a titration curve and label the equivalence points. How does the curve change with strong vs weak bases?
π‘ Hint: Remember to account for where buffer regions stabilize the pH in between each rise.
Question 2
Given a diprotic acid with Ka1 = 0.01 and Ka2 = 0.0001, calculate the pH at the first equivalence point after titration with a strong base.
π‘ Hint: Focus on the concentration of H+ produced and relate it through the Ka1 value.
