Unit 8.7: pH and pKa
Determine if a weak acid or conjugate base is in higher concentration by
comparing pH and pKa.
-
If pH < pKa, which species predominates: weak acid or conjugate base?
- Explain how the ratio of [A−] to [HA] is related to pH and pKa.
Select an appropriate indicator for a titration.
-
Which indicator would you choose for a strong acid-strong base
titration?
-
Explain why the color change should occur near the equivalence point.
