Let's say that you're titrating an acid with a sodium hydroxide solution, and you think you're at the equivalence point (when acid moles = base moles). You (or your partner, I guess) accidentally add an extra drop of base, and the solution immediately turns dark pink. Oh no! Why does the color's intensity change so drastically?
a) Sodium Hydroxide is a strong base, so adding any extra amount will dramatically decrease the pH, thus forcing the indicator to turn dark pink.
b) Sodium Hydroxide is a strong acid, so adding any extra amount will dramatically decrease the pH, thus forcing the indicator to turn dark pink.
c) Sodium Hydroxide is a strong base, so adding any extra amount will dramatically increase the pH, thus forcing the indicator to turn dark pink.
d) Sodium Hydroxide is a strong acid, so adding any extra amount will dramatically increase the pH, thus forcing the indicator to turn dark pink.
You have a 16 mL sample of acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter) with an unknown concentration and a pH of 7.66. You incubate
this sample with the enzyme acetylcholinesterase to convert all of the acetylcholine to choline and acetic acid. The acetic acid
dissociates to yield acetate and hydrogen ions. At the end of the incubation period, you measure the pH again and find that it has
decreased to 5.52. Assuming there was no buffer in the assay mixture, determine the number of nanomoles of acetylcholine in
the original 16 mL sample.

Draw the titration curves for the titrations of (a) a strong acid with a strong base, (b) a strong acid with a weak base, (c) a weak acid with a strong base and (d) a weak acid with a weak base. Make sure you label each of them properly (volume on x-axis and pH on the y-axis). Describe how you would determine the Ka for a weak acid from the titration curves.

- Buffer capacity refers to the amount of acid or base a buffer can absorb without a significant pH change. It is governed by the concentrations of the conjugate acid and base components of the buffer. A 0.5 M buffer can "absorb" five times as much acid or base as a 0.1 M buffer for a given pH change. In this problem you begin with a buffer of known pH and concentration and calculate the new pH after a particular quantity of acid or base is added. 4. You are given 60 mL of 0.50 M phosphate buffer, pH = 6.83, to test.
