Hi everyone!
So NaOH and HF is titrated until endpoint. The final solution would contain:
H2O, H+, OH-, HF, Na and F-.
Why is HF still in there? Didn't the OH from NaOH already jerked out all H+ from HF at endpoint already? Isn't that what "endpoint" means? Or Endpoint just means [NaOH] = [HF] and nothing else?
Or is it because F is just so unstable standing alone that nothing can jerk out its H+?
Thanks guys!
