pH Titration Curves

I. Introduction

Research Question

How does the use of a strong acid with a strong base and the use of weak acid with a strong base affect the pH titration curves?

Hypothesis

The titration of strong acids and strong bases reaches the neutralization point faster than the titration of weak acids with strong bases.

Variables

Independent Variable

The use of different concentrations acidic solutions

Dependent Variable

The reach of the neutralization point between strong acids with strong bases and weak acids with strong bases.

Controlled Variables

- pH probe

Lab quest pH probe will be used throughout the experiment. The use of different probes to collect the data needed can give different readings of the neutralization points. Thus, increase the percentage of error within the experiment.

- Burette

The same burette will be used when finding the neutralization points for both parts of the experiment. Thus, this can decrease the percentage of error and accuracy of reading the results within the experiment.

- Type of base solution

NaOH is
