Using a pH Electrode for an Acid-Base Titration: use a pH electrode to follow the course of an acid-base titration, observe how pH changes slowly during most of the reaction and rapidly near the equivalence point.

Using a pH Electrode for an Acid-Base Titration

•Use a pH electrode to follow the course of an acid-base titration, observe how pH changes slowly
during most of the reaction and rapidly near the equivalence point.

•Compute the first and second derivatives of the titration curve to locate the end point. From the mass of unknown acid or base and the moles of titrant, calculate the molecular mass of the unknown.
