An Introduction of Endpoint and Equivalence Point

Endpoint and equivalence point are the two terminologies that are used in analytical chemistry in titrations. Titration is the volumetric analysis of a sample. This article explains these concepts along with the key differences between endpoint and equivalence point. Endpoint and equivalence points are two different stages that occur in the process of titration. An equivalence point is defined as a stage when the total number of moles of two solutions become equal. On the other hand, the endpoint follows the equivalent point. It represents a stage where it indicates the completion of the reaction with a change in colour or intensity.
