NaOH Concentration Determination by Titration

Vocabulary flashcards for understanding titration techniques and concepts.

Titration

A laboratory technique used to determine the concentration of a solution.

NaOH

Sodium hydroxide, a strong base whose concentration is determined through titration in this experiment.

HCl

Hydrochloric acid, a standardized solution (0.10 mol/L) used as the titrant in this experiment.

Fenolftaleïne

An acid-base indicator used to detect the endpoint of the titration.

Buret

A piece of lab equipment used for the precise dispensing of a titrant during titration.

Erlenmeyer Flask

A flask used to hold the solution being titrated.

Molarity (mol/L)

A unit of concentration, defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

m/V%

The mass/volume percent concentration, expressing the mass of solute per 100 mL of solution; another way to express concentration.
