Lab test: Textbook Flashcards
What is titration?
A common experimental design used to determine the amount concentration of substances in solution
What is the process of titration?
The process of carefully measuring and controlling the addition of a solution, called the titrant, from a burette into a measured fixed volume of another solution called the sample
What is a titrant?
The solution that is added from a burette during a titration analysis
What is a sample?
The fixed volume of a solution in a titration analysis
What is a burette?
A precisely marked glass cylinder
When is a reaction complete?
Chemically equivalent amount reactants, as determined by the mole ratio have been combined
What is the equivalence point?
The point during titration at which the exact theoretical chemical amount of titrant has been added to completely react with the sample
What is the endpoint?
The point during titration when sudden change is observed
