REVIEW PROJECT REPORT ON CONDUCTOMETER

Conduct metric titration is an analytical method used to determine the concentration of ionizable species in a solution by measuring its electrical conductivity. This study aims to investigate the conductometric titration of a mixture of a strong acid, hydrochloric acid (HCl), and a weak acid, acetic acid (CH3COOH), with a strong base, sodium hydroxide (NaOH).

During the titration, the conductivity of the solution changes as the strong acid and the weak acid react with the strong base. The strong acid dissociates completely in water, contributing a high number of ions to the solution, while the weak acid partially dissociates, contributing fewer ions. As NaOH is added, it neutralizes the acids, leading to a decrease in the solution's conductivity. The end point of the titration is determined by a marked change in the conductivity curve.

The results demonstrate distinct conductivity behavior for the strong and weak acids, allowing for their differentiation and accurate determination of their concentrations in the mixture. This method provides a reliable and efficient means of analyzing mixtures of strong and weak acids, with applications in various fields including environmental monitoring, industrial process control, and chemical research [1]
