Bacteria that are spherical in shape
Volumetric solution
Solution of known concentration that is used to react with the analyte
Equivalence point
When an equal number of moles of reactant and moles of analyte have reacted, the reaction has reached a point called the equivalence point which is also known as the theoretical point or stoichiometric point
