- Types:
-
acidimetry
volumetric analysis using standard solutions of acids to measure the amount of a base present
-
alkalimetry
volumetric analysis using standard solutions of alkali to measure the amount of acid present
-
titration
a measured amount of a solution of unknown concentration is added to a known volume of a second solution until the reaction between them is just complete; the concentration of the unknown solution (the titer) can then be calculated
