Formula and assumptions
CₐVₐ × acid equivalents = CᵦVᵦ × base equivalents
At the equivalence point, acid and base reacting equivalents are equal. The equivalents fields handle acids or bases that donate or accept more than one proton per formula unit.
Assumption: At equivalence, the reacting acid and base equivalents are equal.
Variables and units
Worked example
25.0 mL of 0.100 M monoprotic acid requires 25.0 mL of 0.100 M monobasic base at equivalence.
Important limits
It is not a titration curve, pH-at-equivalence or indicator-selection calculator.
