(2) The pKa of aspirin is 3.5. The pH of gastric juice in the human stomach is about 2–3, and that in the small intestine is about 8.0. Aspirin will be:
A. Ionized in the small intestine and almost unionized in the stomach.
B. Unionized in the small intestine and the stomach.
C. Completely ionized in the small intestine and the stomach.
D. Ionized in the stomach and almost unionized in the small intestine.
 
(3) Why are strong acids generally used as standard solutions in acid-base titrations?
A. Strong acids form more stable solutions than weak bases do.
B. They can be used to titrate strong as well as weak bases.
C. If we use them, the pH at the equivalence point will always be 7.0.
Salts of strong acids and strong bases do not hydrolyze.
