In a titration, what does the term 'analyte' refer to?
Correct Answer: Analyte
  • Step 1: Understand that a titration is a laboratory method used to determine the concentration of a substance.
  • Step 2: Identify that in a titration, there are usually two main substances involved: the titrant and the analyte.
  • Step 3: Recognize that the titrant is the solution of known concentration that is added to the analyte.
  • Step 4: Know that the analyte is the substance whose concentration you want to find out.
  • Step 5: Conclude that during the titration, you measure how much titrant is needed to react completely with the analyte.
