Titration
Titration, also known as titrimetry, is a common laboratory method of quantitative chemical analysis that is used to determine the unknown concentration of an identified analyte. Because volume measurements play a key role in titration, it is also known as volumetric analysis. A reagent, called the...

is a common laboratory method of quantitative chemical analysis that is used to determine the unknown concentration of a known reactant.

Titration may also refer to:
  • Acid-base titration
    Acid-base titration
    An acid-base titration is the determination of the concentration of an acid or base by exactly neutralizing the acid/base with an acid or base of known concentration. This allows for quantitative analysis of the concentration of an unknown acid or base solution...

    , based on the neutralization reaction
  • Redox titration
    Redox titration
    Redox titration is a type of titration based on a redox reaction between the analyte and titrant.Redox titration may involve the use of a redox indicator and/or a potentiometer.-Example:...

    , based on an oxidation-reduction reaction
  • Complexometric titration
    Complexometric titration
    Complexometric titration is a form of volumetric analysis in which the formation of a colored complex is used to indicate the end point of a titration. Complexometric titrations are particularly useful for the determination of a mixture of different metal ions in solution...

    , based on the formation of a complex between the analyte and the titrant
  • Zeta potential titration
    Zeta potential titration
    Zeta potential titration is a titration of heterogeneous systems, such as colloids, emulsions, etc. Solids in such systems have very high surface area. This type of titration is used to study the zeta potential of these surfaces under different conditions....

  • Thermometric titration
    Thermometric titration
    Thermometric titration is one of a number of instrumental titration techniques where endpoints can be located accurately and precisely without a subjective interpretation on the part of the analyst as to their location...

    , an instrumental technique
