Question

The graphs labeled (a) and (b) show the titration curves for two 
equal-volume samples of bases, one weak and one strong. Both 
titrations were carried out with the same concentration of 
strong acid. 
a.  
b.  
(ii) Which graph corresponds to the titration of the strong 
base and which one to the weak base?

Accepted Answer

Hey everyone, we're told that one of the following graphs represents the titillation of a strong base with a strong acid, which titillation curve is it. So initially we had our strong base, which means that we had a high initial ph and then we titrate ID with a strong acid. So this means that in the end we will have a very low final ph and because we have a strong acid and a strong base at our equivalence point, We will have a ph of seven. Looking at our answer choices, it looks like answer choice B is going to be our answer. So we can see right here we have high initial ph and we also have an equivalent point of seven and we end up with a very low final ph. Now, I hope that made sense. And let us know if you have any questions.
