The Basic Titration Methods – Higher Difficulty Problems section is crafted for students aiming to master the most challenging and conceptually demanding titration questions encountered in JEE, NEET (Chemistry), CUET, and undergraduate examinations. This module goes beyond routine calculations to focus on multi-step reasoning, deep equilibrium analysis, and error-prone scenarios.
In this section, you will practice:
Multi-stage pH calculations during acid–base titrations, including buffer and equivalence regions
Complex numerical problems involving weak acid–weak base systems and mixed solutions
Advanced redox titration numericals using Nernst equation, equivalent concepts, and non-standard conditions
EDTA titration challenges – conditional stability constants, competing metal ions, and masking effects
Precipitation titration problems – Ksp-driven selectivity, co-precipitation, and endpoint ambiguity
Graph-based and data-interpretation questions on titration curves and experimental data
Error-analysis problems – propagation of errors, indicator limitations, and systematic vs random deviations
Previous-year high-difficulty questions with detailed, step-by-step solutions and examiner insights
The problems are graded to stretch conceptual understanding, sharpen analytical thinking, and build the exam temperament required for top ranks.
Develop problem-solving mastery in Basic Titration Methods by tackling these higher-difficulty challenges, essential for excelling in competitive and UG-level Chemistry exams.
Q. In a back titration, what is the first step?
A.
Add excess titrant to the analyte
B.
Measure the pH of the solution
C.
Dilute the analyte solution
D.
Add a color indicator
Solution
In a back titration, the first step is to add an excess of titrant to the analyte, followed by titrating the unreacted titrant.
Correct Answer:
A
— Add excess titrant to the analyte
