Titration
(noun)
- The process of determining the concentration of a particular substance in a solution by adding a standard solution until the reaction between the two is just complete.
- The measurement of the amount of a substance in a sample by adding a reagent of known concentration and stoichiometry.
Origin:
Late 18th century: from french titration, from titrer "to titrate", from titre "title, degree of strength", from latin titulus "title". .
Examples:
- The titration of an acid and a base is used to determine the concentration of the acid.
- A titration is a laboratory technique in which a solution of known concentration is added to a sample until the reaction between the two is just complete.
- Titration is a technique that is commonly used in chemistry to determine the concentration of a substance in a sample.
- Chemists use titration to determine the concentration of a substance in a sample by adding a reagent of known concentration and stoichiometry.
- The purpose of titration is to determine the concentration of a particular substance in a solution by adding a standard solution until the reaction between the two is just complete.
