Wiktionary
n. (context analytical chemistry English) The determination of the concentration of some substance in a solution by slowly adding measured amounts of some other substance (normally using a burette) until a reaction is shown to be complete, for instance by the colour change of an indicator.
WordNet
n. a measured amount of a solution of unknown concentration is added to a known volume of a second solution until the reaction between them is just complete; the concentration of the unknown solution (the titer) can them be calculated
Wikipedia
Titration, also known as titrimetry, is a common laboratory method of quantitative chemical analysis that is used to determine the unknown concentration of an identified analyte. Since volume measurements play a key role in titration, it is also known as volumetric analysis. A reagent, called the titrant or titrator is prepared as a standard solution. A known concentration and volume of titrant reacts with a solution of analyte or titrand to determine concentration. The volume of titrant reacted is called titration volume.
Titration is a common laboratory method of quantitative chemical analysis that is used to determine the unknown concentration of a known reactant.
Titration may also refer to:
- Acid-base titration, based on the neutralization reaction
- Redox titration, based on an oxidation-reduction reaction
- Complexometric titration, based on the formation of a complex between the analyte and the titrant
- Zeta potential titration characterizes heterogeneous systems such as colloids
- Thermometric titration, an instrumental technique
- In medicine, titration is the process of gradually adjusting the dose of a medication until optimal results are reached
Usage examples of "titration".
In each case the titration must be preceded by an exact preparation of the solution to be assayed in order that the iron may be in the right state of oxidation.
The filtrate, cooled and rendered alkaline with soda, is ready for the titration.
The quantity of iron peroxidised is determined by taking a known quantity of ferrous salt, oxidizing with a weighed sample of nitrate, and then determining the residual ferrous iron by titration with bichromate or permanganate of potassium solution.
In the absence of manganese and cobalt the titration may be made without further separation.
