Key concepts

3 concepts

  1. 1

    The purpose of titration is to quantitatively determine the concentration of an unknown solution by adding a volume of a chemical with a known concentration.

  2. 2

    A burette is a long narrow graduated tube used to add titrant, and it has a stopcock to regulate the flow of liquid.

  3. 3

    When reading the volume on the burette, read the volume from the bottom of the meniscus at eye level and record the volume to the nearest hundredth of a milliliter.
