NaOH Concentration Determination by Titration

Vocabulary flashcards for understanding the key terms and concepts in a titration experiment to determine the concentration of NaOH.

Titration

A process used to determine the concentration of a solution by reacting it with a solution of known concentration.

NaOH

Sodium hydroxide, the concentration of which is being determined in this experiment.

HCl

Hydrochloric acid, a solution with a known concentration (0.10 mol/L) used to titrate the NaOH solution.

Fenolftaleïne

An acid-base indicator used to visually determine the endpoint of the titration (when the solution turns colorless).

Buret

A piece of lab equipment used to accurately dispense a variable amount of liquid, essential for titration.
