The 0.1M sample solution (in water) was found to be close to neutral in pH tending more towards the acidic region. When titrated against both acid and base, the inflection point was reached instantly in both cases. Smaller additions were used when titrating; however the inflection point was still reached instantly. Testing therefore could not be carried out.

The 0.1M solutions were used due to the neutral pH of the test sample. Lower concentrations would simply display the pH of the water it was added to.

Conclusions:
The dissociation constant could not be determined.
Executive summary:

The dissociation constant was determined using the titration method.

The 0.1M sample solution (in water) was found to be close to neutral in pH tending more towards the acidic region. When titrated against both acid and base, the inflection point was reached instantly in both cases. Smaller additions were used when titrating; however the inflection point was still reached instantly. Testing therefore could not be carried out.
