Non-Aqueous Titration Quiz

The text discusses non-aqueous titration and the use of non-aqueous solvents in neutralization curves for weak acids and bases.

Carbon dioxide is added in the titration process to ensure that the moisture content does not exceed more than 0.05%.

The nature of the solvent largely affects the behavior of substances as acids or bases. For example, a substance may act as an acid in the presence of one solvent and as a base in the presence of another.

<p>Non-aqueous solvents are significant in achieving sharp end points in titrations, particularly for weak acids and weak bases, as they provide better end points compared to aqueous solvents.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The Bronsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases can be applied to non-aqueous solvents. It explains how substances in non-aqueous solvents can donate or accept protons, influencing their behavior as acids or bases.</p> Signup and view all the answers
