Titrant◦The substance added to the analyte in a titration (a standard solution)

Analyte◦The substance being analyzed

Equivalence point◦The point in a titration at which the quantity of titrant is exactly sufficient for stoichiometric reaction with the analyte.

Titrant

Analyte

If the concentration of the titrant is known, then the unknown concentration of the analyte can be determined.

Quantitative analysis — used to determine the amounts or concentrations of substances present in a sample by using a combination of chemical reactions and stoichiometric calculations

acid

From the Latin word conjugare, meaning “to join together.”

Reactions between acids and bases always yield their conjugate bases and acids.

HNO3, HCl, H2SO4 and HClO4 are among the only known strong acids.

Strong and Weak Strong and Weak Acids/BasesAcids/Bases

The strength of an acid (or base) is determined by the amount of IONIZATION.

The strength of an acid (or base) is determined by the amount of IONIZATION.

Weak acids are much less than 100% ionized in water.

One of the best known is acetic acid = CH3CO2H

The more polar the H-X bond and/or the weaker the H-X bond, the more acidic the compound.

Acidity increases from left to right across a row and from top to bottom down a group.

H2O can function as both an ACID and a

BASE.
