pH meter measurement precision (decimal places)

2 decimal places

Shape of pH vs volume titration curve

S-shaped curve

pH change in vertical section (pH units)

8-10 pH units

Definition of equivalence point

Point where stoichiometric amounts have reacted completely

pH at equivalence point for strong acid-strong base

pH 7 (neutral)

Definition of end point

When indicator has equal [HA][\text{HA}] and [A−][\text{A}^-]

pH range over which indicators change colour

Approximately 2 pH units

Relationship between pKapK_a and pH at indicator end point

pKa=pHpK_a = pH

Indicators suitable for strong acid-strong base titration

Both methyl orange and phenolphthalein

Indicator suitability for weak acid-weak base titration

No indicator suitable; use pH meter
