Identify the titration curve for a monoprotic weak acid titrated with a strong base.

Titration is a technique to determine the concentration of an unknown solution. As illustrated in the titration setup above, a solution of known concentration (titrant) is used to determine the concentration of an unknown solution (titrand or analyte).

Typically, the titrant (the solution of known concentration) is added through a burette to a known volume of the analyte (the solution of unknown concentration) until the reaction is complete. Knowing the volume of titrant added allows us to determine the concentration of the unknown analyte. Often, an indicator is used to signal the end of the reaction, the endpoint. Titrant and analyte is a pair of acid and base. Acid-base titrations are monitored by the change of pH as titration progresses.

Let us be clear about some terminologies before we get into the discussion of titration curves.

  the   balanced   equation   for   reaction of   ca metal   with   o2 to   produce   cao   is as below

2 ca+ o2→ 2 cao2

  explanation

the reaction is   balanced     since the   number of atoms   in reactant side is   equal to   number of atoms   in   product side.   for   example   they   are 2   atom of   ca in   reactant   side   and   2   atoms of ca   in   the product side.

  the   process   is a   meet the   requirement   of   redox   reaction because :     calcium   is   oxidized   from   oxidation state 0   to 2+   while   oxygen   is reduced from   oxidation   state   0   to 2-
