Finding the end point from pH measurements. Here are data points around the second apparent end point in Figure 10-5:

(a) Prepare a spreadsheet or table analogous to Figure 10-6, showing the first and second derivatives. Plot both derivatives versus V_b and locate the end point in each plot.

(b) Prepare a Gran plot analogous to Figure 10-8. Use the leastsquares procedure to find the best straight line and find the end point. You will have to use your judgment as to which points lie on the “straight” line.
