titration
« on: September 04, 2007, 09:31:19 PM »
Quick question -

would diluting an unknown solution change the number of moles of titrant needed to completely titrate it? I feel like it wouldn't but I'm not sure :)

Thanks!

No.

Update to be more clear. As just "no" can imply you are either right or wrong! heh

No it will not change the number of moles required to titrate it. You are not changing the number of moles in the original solution, just the volume it is in.

Define "completely titrate". To the real/theoretical endpoint? Dilution doesn't matter by definition. To the indicated endpoint? Volume of the titrated solution has to be taken into account.
