At the endpoint of a titration of sodium acetate......will solution #pH# be at #7# or greater or lower than #7#?
Sodium acetate is titrated with hydrochloric acid. At the endpoint, what will be solution #pH# , acidic, basic, or neutral?
Sodium acetate is titrated with hydrochloric acid. At the endpoint, what will be solution
1 Answer
At the endpoint, you have a solution that is stoichiometric in
Explanation:
However, as the conjugate base of a WEAK acid, this should engage in an acid-base equilibrium with the water solvent:
And thus, with stoichiometric
Most of the common acid base indicators, however, will give good consistent results for this titration.
