A titration is a method of measuring the
accuracy

indicator
pipette
volumes
of solutions that react with each other. They are quick, convenient, accurate and easy to automate.
Titration Procedure.
A fixed volume is put into a flask. This volume might have been meaured by a
accuracy
end-point
indicator
pipette
volumes
or burette.
A couple of drops of
accuracy
end-point

are added.
The indicator is chosen because this indicator will change colour quickly when exactly the right amount of acid has been added. There is a sharp change of pH at this point and it is called the
accuracy
end-point
indicator
pipette
volumes
.
Another burette is ready with the acid at a known concentration.
The acid is run into the flask a little at a time until the
accuracy
end-point
indicator

volumes
shows that the end-point has been reached.
Sometimes a rough titratin is done first to get an idea of how much acid is needed, then the whole procedure is repeated with high
accuracy

.
Titrations are sometimes done two or three times in order to be sure of an accurate and consistent result.
