wine the same, the pH of the wine should be the same thus enabling the experiment to be fair. If the pH is different, then the endpoint and the volume of NaOH required to neutralise would be different. Ultimately, the TA found would have a larger uncertainty and a different value. The chemicals used was collected from the same bottle for all trials. 0.1M of both were used. Why: wi5h different concentrations, the volume required to neutralise the solution would differ. This because a stronger concentration would require less volume since there are more molecules that can bond with the solution. Therefore, the TA would consequently be lower than ideal.
