Titrations: Three Steps for Accurate Concentration Measurement
Learn the art of titration with this informative Ask Dr. Adam video. Whether you’re measuring the concentration of a contaminant, an added ingredient, or simply performing an acid-base test, this breaks down the process into simple, easy-to-follow steps.
Dr. Adam will discuss the three key components of a titration—analyte, reagent, and indicator—and how they work together to determine concentrations. He’ll provide a practical example with hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, and phenolphthalein, and how to calculate the original concentration of a solution with precision. Dr. Adam will also offer tips for selecting the right reagents and indicators to perform titrations for various applications.
