Question

what is the acid base titration​

Answer 1

$\huge\underline\purple{Answer:-}$

acid–base titration is a method of quantitative analysis for determining the concentration of an acid or base by exactly neutralizing it with a standard solution of base or acid having known concentration. A pH indicator is used to monitor the progress of the acid–base reaction.

Answer 2

heyyyy mate........

Titration is the quantitative technique, where the concentration of the unknown is determined to form a known concentration. Titration is useful to determine the concentration of either unknown acid or base.

Titration consists of an unknown acid or base. There are different methods used to measure the completion of acid-base reaction, such as pH indicator, conductance, potentiometer, color change, and precipitation.

Acid-base titration can be further classified into four types,

Strong acid-strong base

Weak acid-weak base

Strong acid-weak base

Strong base-weak acid

1. Strong acid vs Strong base titration

Strong acid (inorganic acids) and Strong base react together to give salt in the form of a precipitate. This reaction occurs in stoichiometric, which means that each mole of strong acid reacts with each mole strong base by forming salt. The equivalent point of the reaction is the endpoint of the reaction.

Example:

Here the strong acid is the hydrochloric acid and the strong base is the sodium hydroxide, which react together forming sodium chloride salt.

2. Strong acid vs Weak base

Titration between strong acid (inorganic acids) and weak bases like ammonium hydroxide. Since the titration involves strong acid and weak base, the titration curve is predominantly acidic (see fig).

Example:

Since, the titration involves ammonium hydroxide, a weak base, ammonium chloride is acidic in nature.

3. Weak acid vs Strong base

Titration of weak acid and strong base forming salt and water. Here the salt formed is slightly basic due to the presence of strong base.

Example:

H2CO3 is a weak acid and NaOH is a strong base forming a basic salt sodium carbonate.

4. Weak acid vs weak base

Since, this titration involves acid as well as bases which are weak, resulting solution will be neutral. At the end point pH is neutral that is pH of the solution is 7

Example:

Since, both acid and base are weak; the resultant salt ammonium hydroxide will be neutral in nature.
