, Acid-Base Titration Pre-lab
Purpose: To use acid-base titration in order to determine the effectiveness of an
antacid tablet and to determine the shape of an acid-base titration curve.
Data:
Table 1: Titration of a strong acid (0.100 M HCl) by a strong base (0.100 M NaOH).
Initial volume (±0.05 Final volume (±0.05 Volume added (mL) pH

Table 2: Titration of a weak acid (0.100 M acetic acid) by a strong base (0.100 M
NaOH).
Initial volume (±0.05 Final volume (±0.05 Volume added (mL) pH
