titration

• when is this used?

  for reactions involving reactants in solution form.
• what happens during the reaction?


  samples of the reactant mixture are removed at specific time intervals.
• how does the reaction stop?


  through a method called Quenching.
• what is Quenching?


  a chemical is added to remove one of the reactants to stop any further reaction occurring.
• what happens after quenching?

  the sample is analysed through titration to work out concentration of reactant present in the mixture.
• how can the results be used? why?

  to plot a graph of concentration against time as samples are taken at specific time intervals.
