  1. B - that's the definition of equivalence point, when the acid and base neutralize each other


  2. c. is less than 7.0.  

  3. c. is less than 7.0.

    it does not mean that the pH=7 (neutral) at the equivalence point

    the equivalence point is the point where the amount of titrant added is equivalent, or equal, to the amount of analyte present in the sample cause they react with eachother in a certain ratio.
