I got 0.069 😭 or something. **** did you use the equivalence point to find volume. Then calculate moles from that?

yeah i worked out moles using volume and concentration given then used the equivalence point volume to work out the conc x

The titration curve question? If so I read that about 4 times and I’m certain it didn’t say anything about significant figures.

if you looked at the concentration of the other one, it was given to 3sf, hence why you assume its 3sf for the conc of this as well
