    Acid-Base Titrations

    Weak Acid-Strong Base Titrations
  • The inflection point is not as steep for a weak acid-strong base titration.
  • The shape of the two curves after equivalence point is the same because pH is determined by the strong base in excess.
  • Two features of titration curves are affected by the strength of the acid:
    • the amount of the initial rise in pH, and
    • the length of the inflection point at equivalence.
