### Titration Curve Analysis

#### Task
2. Show equivalence point, ½ equivalence point, and pKa on the more precise graph.

#### Graph: Volume vs pH
The graph displayed shows the relationship between the volume of base added (in mL) and the resulting pH of the solution. The x-axis represents the volume of base added, ranging from 0 to 30 mL, while the y-axis represents the pH values, ranging from 0 to 14.

**Important Points on the Graph:**
- **Equivalence Point**: The steepest part of the curve, indicating a rapid change in pH. It is marked on the graph where the pH suddenly rises from approximately 7 to 12 with additional base volume.
  
- **½ Equivalence Point**: This is marked on the graph at half the volume of the equivalence point, where the pH measures around 5.

- **pKa Determination**: At the ½ equivalence point, pH = pKa is asserted, and hence pKa is identified as 5.0.

#### Calculation
3. **Calculate \( K_a \) from the more precise graph**:

- Given that:
  - \( \text{pKa} = 5.0 \)

- The equation used:
  - \( K_a = 10^{-\text{pKa}} \)
  - \( K_a = 10^{-5.0} \)

The result of this calculation is not provided in the image but should result in \( K_a \) being equal to \( 1.0 \times 10^{-5} \).
