The acidity of water is its quantitative capacity to react with
a strong base to a designated pH.
pH = -log [H+]

The end point does not occur at a specific pH, but rather
there is a range of pH within which the end point will occur.
End Point and Indicators
End point is used to estimate the equivalence point.
