Sketch a graph for a titraton of a weak acid(burette) against 25cm^3 of strong base (conical flask). Assume that both have a concentration of 0.5M. Label axis please!
Let the strong base be NaOH
So we have 25 ml of 0.5 M NaOH in conical flask
titration with 0.5 M of CH3COOH (weak acid) in burette
pKa of CH3COOH = 4.75
Let us calculate few data points for graph
CH3COOH (ml) pH
0 13.70
1 13.66
5 13.52
12.5 13.22
25 9.08 (equivalence point)
28 5.67
30 5.45
50 4.75 (half equivalence point)
75 4.45
100 4.27
