• Define standard solution.
• Define titration.
• Define equivalence point.
• Define back-titration.
• Define end point.
• Define titration error.
• State the purpose of the indicator in a titration.
• Define primary standard.
• List the major requirements for a primary standard.
• List the desirable properties of a standard solution for a volumetric method.
• Describe the two basic methods used to establish the concentration of a standard solution.
• Given data, calculate the molarity, percent concentration, and/or ppm or ppb.
• Given molar concentration, calculate the p-value, and vice versa.
