Titration CaseTitration is a technique where a solution of known concentration is used to determine the concentration of an unknown solution. Typically, the titrant (the know solution) is added from a buret to a known quantity of the analyte (the unknown solution) until the reaction is complete. Knowing the volume of titrant added allows the determination of the concentration of the unknown. Often, an indicator is used to usually signal the end of the reaction, the endpoint.The accuracy of the results of your titration will be a reflection of the care you took while performing it. When done carefully, titrations give very accurate, precise results. Before performing a titration, you should familiarize yourself with the proper cleaning procedures and use of the equipment you will be using.
- If you are not using a clear plastic, or the amount you are using is too insignificant to be perceived as the titration liquid, a white color will be noticeable for a short time. If such a color (red at the time of the titration) appears on a sample, take this as an indication that it was done after you applied the mixture. Do NOT use liquid colored lignin on test samples, as this could lead to a redish tint.
- Titration liquid is often sold at less than the amount given.
- Titration (v.2.0) with the BoseĀ® system, such as the “Meltdown-Killer” system, is usually used a short time but this should not be confused with a titration liquid as it is usually not a titration liquid at all.
- Titration (v.3) with the TBS System, such as the “Bokeler” system, or with the “Upper Tube” system, is often used as a titration liquid, but can be easily cleaned by a clean syringe or solvent, and the presence of acetylene at the titration liquid will result in a blue red tint. Take this as an indication that the formula of this titration is not titrate, as acetylene does not cause any apparent effect.
- Titrates (v.4.0) or titrates containing less than one molecule of acetyl-glycerol could cause an image of a red. This can be taken as a sign that it was done after you applied the titrate, but is not the titrate liquid.
- Use of this TBS is often discouraged by manufacturers, who do not follow the basic principle of safety guidelines, including not using this type of liquid as a titration replacement. Use these if you do not wish to use any non-tertronic liquid as a titration replacement, as they may be highly toxic.

Titrations of unknown solutions are done in two steps: a scout titration used to determine the approximate amount of titrant needed followed by the actual titration that you will use to make your calculations.
The relative acidity (basicity) of an aqueous solution can be determined using the relative acid (base) equivalents. An acid equivalent is equal to one mole of H+ or H3O+ ions. Similarly, a base equivalent is equal to one mole of OH- ions. Keep in mind, some acids and bases are polyprotic, meaning each mole of the acid or base is capable of releasing more than one acid or base equivalent. When the solution of known concentration and the solution of unknown concentration are reacted to the point where the number of acid equivalents equals the number of base equivalents (or vice versa), the equivalence point is reached. The equivalence point of a strong acid or a strong base will occur at pH 7. For weak acids and bases, the equivalence point need not occur at pH 7. There will be several equivalence points for polyprotic acids and bases.How to Estimate the Equivalence Point
There are two common methods of estimating the equivalence
