Concept introduction:
Acid–base titration is a technique to analyse the unknown concentration of the acid or base through a known concentration of the acid and base.
The buffers are those solutions that resist a change in pH on the addition or dilution of a small amount of an acid or alkali, and they consist of a mixture of the weak acid with its salt of the strong base or the weak base with its salt of the strong acid.
