MCQs on Acid Base Titration : Find the multiple choice questions on Acid Base Titration, frequently asked for all competitive examinations.

An acid-base titration is a method of obtaining information about a solution that contains an acid or a base.

Titration can be used to assess the acidic or basic characteristics of hundreds of organic and inorganic substances. A base is titrated with an acid, and an acid is titrated with a base. Adding an indicator to the endpoint is commonly used to detect it
