Which is true of the endpoint versus the equivalence point in a titration?

A.The endpoint is observed; the equivalence point is theoretical
B.They are always exactly identical
C.The equivalence point is where the color changes
D.Neither involves stoichiometry

Explanation

Core Concept

The equivalence point is where stoichiometric amounts exactly react; you cannot see it directly. The endpoint is the indicator's color change, chosen to land as close as possible.
