Introduction Titration is a method of analysis that allows us to determine the exact concentrations of solutions, such as acids and bases. The titration method is very widely used. Among other applications, it is used for analysis in hospitals and in the petrochemical industry. To explore and understand the titration method, it is important to understand the way in which acidic and basic (alkaline) solutions are distinguished. Next >
Number of moles of compound = mass in grams / molecular mass Number of moles of element = mass in grams / atomic mass Titration Calculations In order to perform titrations and successfully interpret the results taken from titration experiments, we need to be able to understand and use certain chemical equations and units. The mole is a quantity of substance that is equivalent to 6.022 × 1023 atoms or molecules of the substance. To calculate the number of moles of a substance, one of the following formulas is used. Next >
Number of moles of HCl = 9/36 Number ofmoles of HCl = 0.25 Titration Calculations To calculate the number of moles in 9 g of HCl (hydrochloric acid): Firstly, work out the molecular mass of HCl: Atomic mass of H = 1 Atomic massofCl = 35 Then, molecular mass of HCl = 36 The number of moles can then be found by dividing the number of grams by molecular mass. Next >
Molarity (M) = Number of moles (mol) Volume in liters or No. of moles = Volume in liters × Molarity Titration Calculations The molarity of a solution is measured in moles per liter. Molarity uses the symbol M and is a measure of the concentration of a solution. To calculate the molarity of a solution from the number of moles in a solution and its volume, the formula is: Next >
Molarity = 0.25 / 0.1 = 2.5 mol/L Titration Calculations All volumes must first be converted to liters (L). Therefore, a 100 mL solution of HCl that contains 0.25 moles of HCl has a molarity given by: Next >
pH Scale Acidic and basic (alkaline) solutions are distinguished using a scale known as the pH scale. The pH scale is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) that are present in a solution. Strong base A strong acid has a very high concentration of hydrogen ions and a low pH. A strong base has an extremely low concentration of hydrogen ions and a high pH value. Strong acid The extremes of the pH scale occur around pH 0 and pH 14. Next >

A solution of pH 7 at 25 °C is neutral. The higher the pH of a solution, the more basic (alkaline) it is. The lower the pH, the more acidic it is. Next >

Indicators Some chemical substances react to different pH levels by changing color. These substances, known as indicators, are used in titration experiments to establish the point at which an acidic solution and an alkaline solution neutralize each other. Next >
Indicators Different indicators change color according to the pH of the solution to which they are added. One color will represent a solution above a certain pH and another color will represent a solution below a certain pH. Next >
Indicators For example, the indicator litmus will show red in acidic solutions and blue in alkaline solutions. Other indicators change color at different acid-alkaline levels. By selecting the right indicator, we can establish the pH level of nearly any colorless aqueous solution. Next >

Next >
Titration An example of a titration is when an acidic solution of known concentration, called the standard acid (titrant), is gradually added to a known volume of alkali (analyte) until a pH meter reads exactly 7 (or an indicator pigment dissolved in the mixture changes its color). The volume of titrant needed to do this is measured. This indicates that the equivalence point has been reached, and the analyte solution is neutralized. Next >
Conducting Titrations The equipment required to carry out a titration typically includes: • Retort stand • Clamps • Burette • Erlenmeyer flask • Graduated measuring tube • Funnel • Plastic pipette Next >
Conducting Titrations Using the filter funnel, transfer the titrant solution to the burette, and record the exact volume in the burette. Next, measure a volume of analyte solution, and place this in the Erlenmeyer flask. Add a few drops of indicator to the analyte solution. Next >
Conducting Titrations Slowly titrate the solution from the burette into the Erlenmeyer flask. Allow the titrant solution to run through the tap as a slow but constant stream of drops. Swirl the Erlenmeyer flask continually to disperse the titrant through the solution. Next >
Conducting Titrations The end-point of the titration is shown by a permanent color change from the indicator. Stop the titrant flow when this occurs. Record the amount of titrant needed to cause a permanent color change. Next >
Conducting Titrations Now repeat the titration, adding the titrant from the burette to the Erlenmeyer flask onedrop at a time once you are within 1 mL of the first titration endpoint. Stop adding the titrant when the equivalence point is reached and record the volume of titrant used. Next >
Number of moles of titrant x 1000 Molar concentration of analyte = Volume of analyte Titration The molar concentration of the analyte can be calculated from the number of moles of titrant needed to neutralize the analyte and the initial volume of analyte. Provided the stoichiometric relation between the base and the acid is 1:1, the number of moles of analyte will be equal to the number of moles of titrant used in its neutralization, and because of that: Next >
