  2. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_of_uncertainty

    A practical application is an experiment in which one measures current, I, and voltage, V, on a resistor in order to determine the resistance, R, using Ohm's law, R = V / I. Given the measured variables with uncertainties, I ± σ I and V ± σ V, and neglecting their possible correlation, the uncertainty in the computed quantity, σ R, is:

  3. Mass communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_communication

    In social science, mass communication is related to communication studies, but has its roots in sociology.Mass communication is "the process by which a person, group of people or organization creates a message and transmits it through some type of medium to a large, anonymous, heterogeneous audience."

  4. Titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titration

    A titration curve is a curve in graph the x-coordinate of which represents the volume of titrant added since the beginning of the titration, and the y-coordinate of which represents the concentration of the analyte at the corresponding stage of the titration (in an acid–base titration, the y-coordinate usually represents the pH of the solution).

  5. Law of mass action - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_mass_action

    Active mass was defined in the 1879 paper as "the amount of substance in the sphere of action". [14] For species in solution active mass is equal to concentration. For solids, active mass is taken as a constant. , a and b were regarded as empirical constants, to be determined by experiment.

  6. Thermometric titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermometric_titration

    An actual thermometric titration plot for the determination of a strong base with a strong acid is illustrated in Figure 3. Fig. 4b. Thermometric probe for Metrohm 859 Titrotherm thermometric titration system. The most practical sensor for measuring temperature change in titrating solutions has been found to be the thermistor.

  7. Karl Fischer titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Fischer_titration

    The volumetric titration is based on the same principles as the coulometric titration, except that the anode solution above now is used as the titrant solution. The titrant consists of an alcohol (ROH), base (B), SO 2 and a known concentration of I 2. Pyridine has been used as the base in this case. One mole of I 2 is consumed for each mole of ...

  8. Coulometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulometry

    Advantages of Coulometric Titration Coulometric titration has the advantage that constant current sources for the generation of titrants are relatively easy to make. The electrochemical generation of a titrant is much more sensitive and can be much more accurately controlled than the mechanical addition of titrant using a burette drive.

  9. Redox titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redox_titration

    A redox titration [1] is a type of titration based on a redox reaction between the analyte and titrant. It may involve the use of a redox indicator and/or a potentiometer. A common example of a redox titration is the treatment of a solution of iodine with a reducing agent to produce iodide using a starch indicator to help detect the endpoint.
