In a potentiometric titration is the titration stopped as soon as the equivalence point is reached? Why or why not?     Yes.  There is no need to continue the titration after the equivalence point is reached because only the equivalence point is the essential information in this experiment.     No.  Five or six more portions of 2-4 mL portions of base should be added otherwise the equivalence point cannot be determined accurately from the graph.     No.  The 2-4 mL portions of base should be added until a buret is empty. Otherwise the experiment is not completed.
