When the conductivity is at a minimum, what must be true about the amount of Ba(OH)2 compared to H2SO4? Why does it not conduct at this low point? Why does it conduct more before and after this minimum point?

OpenStudy (gebooors):

Ba(OH)2 is a base which gives two OH- ions. H2SO4 is an acid which gives two H+ ions. OH- and H+ ions neutralizes each other. If conductivity is low, amount of base and acid are equal. In other points there are either H+ or OH- ions which Can carry charge in solution. There are Ba2+ and SO4 2- ions, which precipitate each other.
