Titration

Question 1

what is it

Answer 1

Titration is the slow addition of one solution of a known concentration (called a titrant) to a known volume of another solution of unknown concentration until the reaction reaches neutralization, which is often indicated by a color change.

Question 2

Types of Titration

Answer 2

Acid-Base Titration: Determines the concentration of an acid or base in a solution using a pH indicator or pH meter

Question 3

Equipment

Answer 3

Burette: Used to deliver the titrant accurately.

Pipette: Measures precise volumes of the analyte or other solutions.

Erlenmeyer flask or beaker: Holds the analyte solution.

Indicator: Chemical that changes color to signal the end of the reaction (for acid-base titration).

Question 4

Procedure

Answer 4

Preparation: Standardize the titrant (if necessary) and prepare the analyte solution. Choose an appropriate indicator if performing an acid-base titration.

Titration Process:

Add the titrant to the analyte solution slowly until the reaction reaches its endpoint.
The endpoint is often signaled by a color change (in acid-base titrations), a voltage change (in redox titrations), or a turbidity change (in precipitation titrations).
Calculations:

Calculate the concentration of the analyte using the volume and concentration of the titrant used, based on the stoichiometry of the reaction.
