22
Q

What does an acid-base titration determine? And how?

A

The concentration of the acid or base by accurately measuring the volumes used in the neutralisation reaction. Indicator can be used to show the end point of the reaction.

23
Q

How are titrations used to produce an uncontaminated salt solution?

A

After the titration when the volumes of both acid and alkali have been noted the titration can be repeated to produce the uncontaminated salt solution which can be evaporated to dryness
