pKa = pH for strong acid — strong base?

I have learnt that for a weak acid — strong base titration, $\mathrm{p}K_\mathrm{a} = \mathrm{pH}$ at the half equivalence point. However, the same conclusion is not drawn when discussing strong acid —...

Is chromate a suitable indicator for the titration of Ag⁺ with Cl⁻?

To titrate $\ce{Cl-}$ with $\ce{Ag+}$ we use chromate $\ce{CrO4^2-}$ as an indicator. The titration reaction is: $$\ce{Ag+ + Cl- <=> AgCl}\tag{R1}$$ $$K_1 = \frac{1}{K_\mathrm{sp}(\ce{AgCl})} =...
