Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The mass of given triprotic acid namely citric acid that contains 152
Concept Introduction:
Titration: It is a quantitative analysis method used to express the concentration of acid or base present in the solution.
For an
That is,
Normality: It generally expresses the concentration of acid or base as equivalents of acid or base present in one liter of the solution.
Molarity: The concentration for solutions is expressed in terms of molarity as follows,
The normality for any acid or base equals the molarity times of the number of
Equivalent of Acid: Generally, 1 equivalent of ion is the number of ions which has charge of one mole.
