Titration
in an acid-base titration, a solution of known concentration
(titrant) is slowly added to a solution of unknown concentration
(analyte) from a burette until the reaction is complete
when the reaction is complete we have reached the endpoint of
the titration
an indicator may be added to determine the endpoint
an indicator is a chemical that changes color when the pH
changes
when the moles of H3O+ = moles of OH, the titration has reached
its equivalence point
Equivalence point not the same as end point!
Equivalence point is the theoretical point when moles acid = moles base.
End point is experimental point that approximates equivalence point.
Titration
Indicators
many dyes change color depending on the pH of the solution
these dyes are weak acids, establishing an equilibrium with the H2O
and H3O+ in the solution
H-Ind(aq) + H2O(l) Ind(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Ka = [Ind-][H3O+] / [H-Ind]
pKa of indicator is pH where indicator changes color
When using an indicator to monitor a titration, we want to match the
pKa of the indicator with the pH of the equivalence point as closely
as possible.

Types of titrations
Four general types of titrations:
- strong acid / strong base (base added to acid; base = titrant)
- strong base / strong acid (acid added to base; acid = titrant)
- weak acid / strong base
- weak base / strong acid
All titrations share common traits
- pH before titrant is added
- pH before equivalence point is reached
- pH at equivalence point (acid or base is entirely neutralized!)
- pH after equivalence point (excess titrant)
