What is the main purpose of acid-base titrations?

• To test if reactants react.

• To calculate the concentration of unknown analyte.

• To calculate the concentration of known analyte.

• To test quality of reactants.

What is the role of an indicator in a reaction?

• To help reactants react successfully.

• To bind to the analyte to form a products.

• To show when the reaction has reached or past the equivalence point.

• To provide a surface for the reaction to occur.

What is an equivalence point?

• It is the point when enough analyte has been added.

• It is the point when the amount of added titrant is equal to the amount of analyte in the solution.

• It is the point when the volume of titrant is equivalent the volume of analyte.

• It is the point when the concentration of titrant added is equivalent to the volume of analyte.
