A reagent, termed the titrant or titrator, [2] is prepared as a standard solution of known concentration and volume. The titrant reacts with a solution of analyte (which may also be termed the titrand [3]) to determine the analyte's concentration. The volume of titrant that reacted with the analyte is termed the titration volume.
Differences in the temperature between the titrant and the titrand; Evaporative losses from the surface of the rapidly mixed fluid; Heats of solution when the titrant solvent is mixed with the analyte solvent; Heat introduced by the mechanical action of stirring (minor influence); and; Heat produced by the thermistor itself (very minor influence).
Titration is a family of techniques used to determine the concentration of an analyte. [8] Titrating accurately to either the half-equivalence point or the endpoint of a titration allows the chemist to determine the amount of moles used, which can then be used to determine a concentration or composition of the titrant.
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 ...
Depending on whether the reaction between the titrant and analyte is exothermic or endothermic, the temperature will either rise or fall during the titration. When all analyte has been consumed by reaction with the titrant, a change in the rate of temperature increase or decrease reveals the equivalence point and an inflection in the ...
Also called direct coulometry, the analyte is oxidized or reduced at the working electrode without intermediate reactions. [6] The working electrode is kept at a constant potential and the current that flows through the circuit is measured. This constant potential is applied long enough to fully reduce or oxidize all of the electroactive ...
Gran plots use linear approximations of the a priori non-linear relationships between the measured quantity, pH or electromotive potential (emf), and the titrant volume. Other types of concentration measures, such as spectrophotometric absorbances or NMR chemical shifts, can in principle be similarly treated.
E sol is the potential drop over the test solution between the two electrodes. E cell is recorded at intervals as the titrant is added. A graph of potential against volume added can be drawn and the end point of the reaction is halfway between the jump in voltage.
