Study Notes
Quantitative Analysis
- Determines the amount of a substance in a sample.
Volumetric Analysis (Titration)
- Method of quantitative analysis that measures the volume of a solution of known concentration (standard solution) required to react completely with a sample of unknown concentration.
- Acid-base, precipitation, complex-formation, and redox titrations are types of volumetric analysis.
Gravimetric Analysis
- Method of quantitative analysis that measures the weight of a substance in a sample.
Instrumental Analysis
- Method of quantitative analysis that relies on instruments to measure the amount of a substance in a sample.
Standard Solutions
- Solutions of known concentration used in volumetric analysis.
- Classified as primary or secondary depending on their preparation and stability.
Equivalence Point
- Point in a titration where the amount of titrant added is stoichiometrically equivalent to the amount of analyte in the sample.
End Point
- Point in a titration where a visual indicator signals the completion of the reaction.
Titration Methods
- Direct Titration: Titrant is added directly to the analyte until the end point is reached.
- Back Titration: A known excess of titrant is added to the analyte, then a second titrant is used to react with the excess titrant to determine the amount of analyte.
- Displacement Titration: A reagent reacts with the analyte to displace a substance that is then titrated with a standard solution.
Acid-Base Theories
- Arrhenius Theory: Acids produce hydrogen ions (H⁺) in solution, while bases produce hydroxide ions (OH⁻).
- Bronsted-Lowry Theory: Acids donate protons (H⁺), while bases accept protons.
- Lewis Theory: Acids accept electron pairs, while bases donate electron pairs.
Buffer Solutions
- Solutions that resist changes in pH upon the addition of small amounts of acid or base.
- Composed of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid.
Acid-Base Indicators
- Substances that change color in response to changes in pH.
- Used to visually detect the end point of a titration.
Titration Curves
- Plots of pH versus volume of titrant added during a titration.
- Used to determine the equivalence point and choose an appropriate indicator.
Applications of Acid-Base Titrations
- Determination of:
- Acids (weak and strong)
- Bases (weak and strong)
- Salts
- Mixture of acids
- Mixture of bases
- Proteins and nitrogen compounds (Kjeldahl method)
- Biphasic Titration
