  1. 1. Which pair of indicator and titration is suitable?

    • A. Methyl orange: ethanoic acid with NaOH
    • B. Phenolphthalein: HCl with ammonia
    • C. Phenolphthalein: ethanoic acid with NaOH
    • D. Methyl orange: ethanoic acid with ammonia
  2. 2. The pH at the equivalence point of a weak acid with a strong base is above 7 because:

    • A. the acid is fully dissociated
    • B. the conjugate base of the acid reacts with water to give OH⁻
    • C. excess NaOH remains
    • D. the salt is neutral
  3. 3. A weak acid–strong base titration has pH 4.20 after half of the equivalence volume is added. What is KaK_a?

    • A. 6.31 × 10⁻⁵ mol dm⁻³
    • B. 4.20 mol dm⁻³
    • C. 1.58 × 10⁻¹⁰ mol dm⁻³
    • D. 6.31 × 10⁻⁹ mol dm⁻³
  4. 4. Which titration shows no sharp change in pH?

    • A. HCl with NaOH
    • B. Ethanoic acid with NaOH
    • C. HCl with ammonia
    • D. Ethanoic acid with ammonia
  5. 5. Why is ΔH neutralisation for ethanoic acid with NaOH less exothermic than for HCl?

    • A. Ethanoic acid is more concentrated
    • B. Some energy is used to ionise the weak acid
    • C. Ethanoic acid does not react with NaOH
    • D. Water is not formed
