In the titration of weak acid against strong base match the pH of the solution at different stage of titration.

Assertion : In a titration of weak monoprotic acid with strong base, the pH at the half equivalent point is pK_(a) . Reason : At half equivalence point, it will form acidic buffer at its maximum capacity where [acid] = [salt].
