Question

Which statement about the equivalence point in a titration of a strong acid with a strong base is true?

Answer 1

It occurs at a pH of 7.

The equivalence point will be at a pH of 7 in a strong acid-base titration.

Answer 2

This is only true for the titration of a strong acid with a strong base or vice versa. At the equivalence point of the titration of a weak base with a strong acid the pH is less than 7.00 and at the equivalence point of the titration of a weak acid with a strong base the pH is greater than 7.00.
