Conductometric titration curve plotting
In the conductometric titation of HCl vs NaOH, the conductance initially decreases, reaches a minimum at equivalence point, and then the slope of the curve becomes positive:

Is "Sulfuric acid... makes a poor electrolyte... very little of it will dissociate into ions" really true? What does that actually mean?
While researching chromate conversion coating for edits to this answer in Space Exploration SE, I came upon the following passage in Corrosion Resistance of Stainless Steel to Sulfuric Acid
Sulfuric ...

Why we do not add salt water to the batteries instead of acid? [closed]
Actually I was just thinking that since we add acid to the batteries to increase the conductivity but the thought simply crossed my mind that salt are strong electrolytes so there should be a good ...

How to derive the conductivity titration curve which accounts for salt formation
I derived an equation that gave me the volume of base required to get a certain $\mathrm{pH}$:
In a titration between a weak acid $\ce{HA}$ and weak base $\ce{B}$ (adding base into acid solution) the ...

If a conductivity meter is calibrated with aqueous standards, can it be used to measure the conductivity of an organic-based solvent system?
Trying to figure out if the calibration solutions for a conductivity probe/meter must be of a similar nature to the system which will be measured. I can only find aqueous calibration solutions online, ...

Which is more conductive?
There are two choices. One is Nitric acid, and the other is phosphoric acid.
The solution of each type of these acids has a concentration of 0.1 mole. I answer would be phosphoric acid, because each ...
