Figure 10-4 (a) Experimental points in the titration of 1.430 mg of xylenol orange,
a hexaprotic acid, dissolved in 1.000 mL of 0.10 M NaNO,. The titrant was 0.065 92 M NaOH.
(b) The first derivative, ApH/AV, of the titration curve. (c) The second derivative,
A(ApH/AV)/AV, which is the derivative of the curve in panel b. Derivatives for the first
end point are calculated in Figure 10-5. End points are taken as maxima in the derivative
curve and zero crossings of the second derivative.
