Concept:A strong acid–strong base titration has a very sharp pH rise and its equivalence point is at pH=7.Explanation:The curve starts at a low pH, typical of a strong acid.As the base is added, the pH rises slowly at first, then changes sharply at the equivalence point.The sharp break at pH=7 is the characteristic feature of a strong acid reacting with a strong base.Answer: A. Strong acid and strong base
