Titration Technique of  Analytical Chemistry 

Titration is a technique used in analytical chemistry to determine the concentration of unknown solutions by using solutions of known concentration. Solution of known concentration is known as titrant while the solution of unknown concentration is known as analyte in titration technique.

As we all know, the number of diabetes patients is increasing day by day worldwide. Do you know the drugs used for the treatment of diabetes contain metals in a specific amount? The metal content in a drug can be determined by titration techniques (complexometric titrations). It is a very useful, simple, and low-cost technique for various medicinal applications in the pharmaceutical field. So, you should have a good understanding of the titration technique. 

To understand the titration technique, you need to have a clear understanding of the terms related to it such as a pipette, burette, titrant, analyte endpoint and equivalence point, etc. Generally, students get confused between endpoint and equivalence point; so, in this article, we will discuss these two terms clearly and comparatively in detail. 

Endpoint and equivalence points are closely related and confusable. Both the points show very important stages of titration during performing the titration experiment. Still, both points are different and show two different stages of titration.
