In the titration of a weak acid, both a neutralization reaction and an acid‐dissociation equilibrium reaction with water (Ka) are occurring. Provide a molecular‐level explanation that describes how these two reactions contribute to the resulting pH observed during the drop‐by‐drop addition of NaOH during a titration procedure.
