A group of students is comparing the graphs of strong acid-strong base and weak acid-strong base titration curves, where the base is the titrant. Which statement inaccurately describes a difference between the two curves?

The weak acid is only partially ionized, so its titration curve has a buffer region and a less abrupt pH change near equivalence than a strong acid–strong base curve. Thus, the steep-rise interval is not more pronounced for the weak acid; choice D inaccurately describes the difference. The other statements are accurate: the weak acid starts at a higher pH, and its equivalence-point pH and half-equivalence-point pH are higher.
