Question

The limiting reactant and the non-limiting reactant in the post-equivalence region in the titration are sodium hydroxide and acetic acid, respectively. True or false.

Answer 1

The limiting reactant and the non-limiting reactant in the post-equivalence region in the titration are sodium hydroxide and acetic acid, respectively.   False

After equivalence point, the added NaOH is an excess reagent and acetic acid is limiting reagent. Because at equivalence point all the acetic acid and NaOH gets consumed and only acetate ions are present in the solution. So post equivalence point , no more acetic acid is there to react with NaOH and hence it is limiting reagent and NaOH is excess reagent.
