Lesson 2

Module 7—Chemical Analysis

Lesson Summary

 

In this lesson you explored the following essential question:

  • How can titration be used to calculate the quantity of solute in a solution?

You performed a titration and analyzed the data collected during a titration experiment. Titration analysis can be used to verify the concentration of a substance in a solution or commercial product. Through your work in determining the mass of vitamin C in a juice box, you learned that the techniques involved in titrations can be used in situations other than acid-base reactions.

 

In the next lesson you will learn more about the design of a titration experiment and why it allows for precise determination of a solute’s concentration.
