Acid-Base Titration is a commonly used laboratory technique of quantitative analysis used for determining the concentration of the desired substance in a solution. In a titration, the titrant (solution with known concentration) is added to the analyte (solution with unknown concentration) whose concentration is to be determined.
Titration Process
Performing acid-base titration involves using a pipette for measuring titrant and a burette for dispensing the measured volume of titrant. The burette is attached to a conical flask to facilitate slow and steady addition of titrant to the analyte until the color of the mixture changes indicating the end of the chemical reaction. This stage is also known as endpoint or equivalent point. Here the concentration of analyte can be determined by measuring the amount of titrant used. Since we are already aware of the volume and concentration of titrant added from burette to conical flask, it is, therefore, easier for us to use all these metrics to check the concentration of unknown solution using a balanced equation.
Titration Types
Depending on the nature of chemical reactions involved titrations can be divided into the following types:
- Acid-base titration.
- Redox Titration.
- Precipitation Titration.
- Complexometric Titration.
In certain cases, titrant can also have more than a single component so based on a number of components, titrations can also be classified into – Single titration system and a Dual titration system.
