What is a common mistake to avoid during titration?
Correct Answer: Adding the titrant too quickly.
- Step 1: Understand what titration is - it's a method used to determine the concentration of a solution.
- Step 2: Identify the two solutions involved - the titrant (the solution you add) and the analyte (the solution you are testing).
- Step 3: Know the endpoint - this is the point in the titration where the reaction is complete, often indicated by a color change.
- Step 4: Add the titrant slowly - this helps you observe the changes in the solution more accurately.
- Step 5: Watch for the endpoint carefully - if you add the titrant too quickly, you might go past the endpoint and get an incorrect result.
