Question

Which one of the following conditions is met at the equivalence point of the titration of a monoprotic weak acid with a strong base?A. The volume of strong base added from the buret must equal the volume of weak acid.B. The moles of strong base added must equal the moles of weak acid.C. pH

Answer 1

Answer:

At the equivalence point of the titration of a monoprotic weak acid with a strong base: B. the moles of strong base added must equal the moles of weak acid.

Explanation:

In every titration, the equivalence point is defined as the point where the moles of the titrant and analyte are equal. For every acid-base titration, the equivalence point is defined as the point where the moles of the base is equal to the moles of the acid.

If the solutions of the acid and base are at a different concentration the volume added from the buret will not be the same as the volume of the analyte.
