A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Volumetric analysis

Volumetric analysis is a quantitative technique that determines the concentration of an analyte by reacting it with a reagent of known concentration. Mastering the concepts of equivalence point, titration curves, and standardisation of titrants is essential for accurate results and for answering exam questions on calculation and interpretation of titration data.
