how do we do titration?

Expert Solution
Step 1

The method of determine the quantity of an acid or a base by adding a calculated quantity of a base or an acid is called the titration of an acid with base.

Equivalent point:

 

Equivalent point is a point of acid-base titration where acid and base present in the stoichiometrically equivalent amount.

 

Indicator:

Indicator of acid-base titration is a compound that changes color according to changes of solution. In general the color of indicator of acid-base titration changes when the acidic solution becomes basic or basic solution becomes acidic.

 

 End point:

End point of acid –base titration is a point at which the acidic solution becomes basic or basic solution becomes acidic means at this point the indicator changes its color. In general to determinate the end point we use an indicator in acid-base titration.
