Titration Reactions

Question 1 • Foothill-B Period-Chemistry-26/27B

Which of the following would be the best reason to use titration for monitoring the effects of acid rain on drinking water?

Answer
A
to determine the concentration of acid in drinking water
B
to find out if the drinking water contains helpful nutrients for the body
C
to find out if there are other poisonous chemicals in the drinking water
D
to determine the molar ratio of acid to base in the drinking water

Explanation

Titration uses a measured solution to determine the concentration of another substance, such as acid in a water sample. This makes it useful for monitoring whether acid rain has increased the acidity of drinking water. Determining an acid-to-base molar ratio is not the main purpose here, and titration would not identify nutrients or unrelated poisonous chemicals.
