Example:
Titration of weak base vs perchloric acid in dioxan-formic acid
Titration of weak organic acid in methanol vs tetra methyl
ammonium hydroxide in methanol-benzene.
Advantages of conductometric AIAS
titrations
Determination of specific conductivity not required
Suitable for dilute or coloured solutions
No indicators required
Instrumental methods helps to get accurate results with
minimum error
Can be used for weak acids/ bases, turbid solutions, mixture
of acids etc.
Temperature need not be known as long as it is maintained
constant throughout the experiment.
AIAS
Applications of conductometric
titrations
Solubility of sparingly soluble salts can be detected
Alkalinity of fresh water
Salinity of sea water
Check water pollution
Detection and quantitation of antibiotics
Microbiology- tracing micro-organisms
Purity of distilled and de-ionized water.
