Key Concepts

Here are the essential concepts you must grasp in order to answer the question correctly.

Titration

Titration is a quantitative analytical technique used to determine the concentration of a solute in a solution. It involves the gradual addition of a titrant (a solution of known concentration) to a sample solution until the reaction reaches the equivalence point, where the amount of titrant equals the amount of substance in the sample. This process is often monitored using indicators or pH meters.

Molarity (M)

Molarity is a measure of concentration defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. It is expressed in moles per liter (mol/L) and is crucial for calculations in titration, as it allows for the determination of how much of a titrant is needed to react with a given volume of analyte. Understanding molarity is essential for converting between volumes and concentrations in titration problems.

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the relationships between the quantities of reactants and products in chemical reactions. In titration, stoichiometry is used to calculate the volume of titrant required based on the balanced chemical equation of the reaction. It allows for the determination of how much of one reactant is needed to completely react with a given amount of another reactant.
