Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of titration methods in Analytical Chemistry?

  • To determine the volume of a known solution needed to react with the analyte (correct)
  • To react completely with the standard solution
  • To measure the quantity of analyte in a solution
  • To produce a chemical change in the analyte

What is the role of an Analyte (Titrand) in a titration?

  • It is a reagent of known concentration
  • It is a standard solution used for titration
  • It is a solution of unknown concentration but known volume (correct)
  • It is the reagent added from a burette

What is a characteristic of back-titration in titrations?

  • It determines the excess of standard solution used to consume an analyte (correct)
  • It is used when the rate of reaction between analyte and reagent is fast
  • It is performed at the equivalence point
  • It involves slowly adding a standard solution from a burette
