Which of the following is TRUE? A) The equivalence point is where the amount of acid equals the amount of base during any acid-b
ase titration. B) At the equivalence point, the pH is always 7. C) An indicator is not pH sensitive. D) A titration curve is a plot of pH vs. the [base]/[acid] ratio. E) None of the above is true.
The correct option is b, since if we reach pH 7, it means that the acid-base reaction is neutralized, therefore the base has been neutralized by an acid or vice versa, without taking into account the proteins or the amounts of both components .
A) is wrong. The unit for amount of substance is the mole. The moles of acid equal the moles of base only when the molar ratio is 1:1. If the molar ratio is different, you will use different moles of acid and base used to reach the equivalence point.
B) is wrong. The pH = 7 only for a strong acid-strong base titration. If you have a weak acid or base, the pH at the equivalence point will not be 7.
C) is wrong. An indicator is pH sensitive. It shows distinct colours in different pH ranges.
D) is wrong. A titration curve is a plot of pH vs. the volume of titrant.
If you don't practice enough it's obviously going to be hard but if you practice enough it's going to be a piece of cake so don't think if it's going to be hard or not just think it's going to be worth the try at the very end
