What are Oxidizing Agents?
An oxidizing agent is a substance that facilitates oxidation in other substances during a chemical reaction. It achieves this by accepting electrons from another substance, …
Redox Titrations
Redox titrations are a fundamental aspect of volumetric analysis, wherein a solution of known concentration (titrant) reacts with a solution of unknown concentration (analyte) through …
Masking and Demasking Reagents
Masking and demasking reagents are chemical agents used to control interference in analytical chemistry, particularly in complexometric titrations, gravimetric analysis, and spectrophotometry. These reagents selectively …
Theory of Complexometric Titration
Complexometric titration is based on the formation of a stable complex between a metal ion (analyte) and a chelating agent (titrant). The process involves the …
Chelating agent
A chelating agent is a substance capable of forming multiple bonds with a single metal ion, creating a stable ring-like structure called a chelate. These …
What is Complexometric Titration?
Complexometric titration, also known as chelatometry, is a type of volumetric analysis that uses the formation of a colored complex to determine the endpoint of …
