The following titration was performed by placing a 10.00 mL solution in an Erlenmeyer flask and titrating it with 0.1250 M titrant. What is the pKa of the species being titrated? 5.0 10.2 8.0 3.8 2.1
The following titration was performed by placing a 10.00 mL solution in an Erlenmeyer flask and titrating it with 0.1250 M titrant.
What is the pKa of the species being titrated?
A solution can be either acidic or basic based on its pH value. The pH value is the negative logarithm of the total H+ ion concentration in the solution. When the H+ concentration is high, the pH is low and the solution is acidic. When the H+ concentration is low, the pH is high and the solution is basic. Acids are substances that donate a proton.
The titration curve is the graphical representation of the gradual neutralization of the acid by a titrant (usually a base). The concentration of the titrant is denoted in the x axis of the titration curve and the pH of the solution is denoted in the y axis of the titration curve.
