Titration

What is titration?

Titration is a quantitative analysis technique that determines the concentration of an unknown solution by reacting it with a standard solution of known concentration until a clear end point. For acid–base titrations, an indicator (phenolphthalein, methyl orange) changes colour at the end point; for redox titrations, a self-indicating species like potassium manganate(VII) does the job. Required practical on every UK board.
