How do I know the volume of a pipette in titration?
« on: March 22, 2021, 06:35:13 PM »
I was rewatching a video class today and my teacher said since we know the volume of the burette, and the concentration of analyte (mg/L), we would be able to know what pipette should use, and nothing but that.

My question is how do I calculate that, I thought in several ways but anything is clear to me. :-\

To minimalize the error you want the amount of analyte to be reasonably close to what can be titrated with the full burette, but definitely lower than that.
