Answer: The stoichiometric point is when # moles H3O+(OH¯) = # moles OH¯(H3O+) in sample.

So would it be correct to also say that at the stoichiometric point the amount of salt present is equal to the amount of titrant added?

Isn't the stoichiometric point is just the location when the pH=7 because that is neutral. Which is when the acid and base equal each other. (I might have poorly worded this but only because I tried to explain it in the most simple terms. If anyone could correct me. I'd appreciate constructive criticism)

I was also confuse on this. So I understand the the Stoichiometric point is when the moles of the base = the moles of the acid being added. So do we calculate the new molar value by calculating the moles of the base given and divide by total volume. Or is my interpretation wrong? Or how were we suppose to find the molar to set up the ICE table?

The stoichiometric point is when # moles H3O+(OH¯) = # moles OH¯(H3O+) in sample.

The pH at the stoichiometric point is determined by the salt formed at the stoichiometric point.
