Volumetric Analysis Flashcards
It is a general term for a method in quantitative chemical analysis in which the amount of a substance is determined by the measurement of the volume that the substance occupies
Volumetric analysis
It is commonly used to determine the unknown concentration of known reactant.
Volumetric analysis
often referred to as titration
Volumetric analysis
a laboratory technique in which one substance of known concentration and volume is used to react with another substance of unknown concentration
Titration
Involves the preparations, storage, and measurement of the volume of chemicals for analysis.
Volumetric analysis
Quantitative chemical analysis which determines volume of a solution of accurately known concentration required to react quantitatively with the analyte (whose concentration to be determined).
Volumetric titrimetry
The volume of titrant required to just completely react with the analyte is the _____
titre
A process in which a standard reagent is added to a solution of analyte until the reaction between the two is judged complete.
Titration
it is the known solution placed in the burette
Titrant
The unknown solution placed in the Erlenmeyer flask
Analyte
Where is the analyte placed?
Erlenmeyer flask
Where is the titrant placed?
Burette
A reagent solution of accurately known concentration
- Standard solution
- Primary standard
A process to determine the concentration of a solution of known concentration by titrating with a primary standard.
Standardization
The point at which the reaction is observed to be completed
End point
Serves as a signal that tells the analyst to stop adding reagent and make the final reading of on the burette
End point
What is the end point referred to?
Signal
The point at which an equivalent or stoichiometric amount of titrant is added to the analyte based on the stoichiometric equation.
Equivalent point
What are the equipment used in Volumetric analysis or titration?
- Pipette
- burette
- conical flask
- wash bottles
- funnel
- volumetric flasks
For measuring accurate and precise volumes of solutions.
pipette
For mixing two solutions.
conical flask
For pouring measured volumes of solutions.
burette
These contain distilled water for cleaning equipment.
wash bottles
For transfer of liquid without spilling.
funnel
