Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The quantity of protein present in sample has to be calculated in $mg/mL$ given that $3.00\text{ mL NaOH}$ required to react with $HCl$ released by distillation of $N{H}_3$ formed by digestion of protein.

Concept introduction:

Acid-base titration is titration between acid and base. It is also known as neutralization reaction.

There are primarily four types of acid-base titrations –

• Strong base vs strong acid
• Strong base vs weak acid
• Weak base vs strong acid
• Weak base vs weak acid

Titration of $NaOH-HCl$ is a type of strong base – strong acid titration as $NaOH$ is strong base and $HCl$ is strong acid.
