Dilute solutions of the same weak acid (pKa = 4.5) ranging in concentration from 2 x 10-6 M to 2 x 10-2 M are titrated with a strong base that is five times more concentrated than the acid. At low concentrations of a weak acid, how does the concentration of the acid affect the shape of the titrat The lower the concentration of the acid, the sharper the inflection at the equivalence point. The shape of the titration curve depends only on the pKa of the acid, not its concentration. The higher the concentration of the acid, the sharper the inflection at the equivalence point. The shape of the titration curve is the same, regardless of the acid's concentration.
