English

Subject field(s)
  • Analytical Chemistry
DEF

Method of quantitative analysis consisting in measurements of charges of conductivity of solution during titration of analyzed substance with suitable reagent.

CONT

conductimetric titration. The end-point in acid-alkali titration can be determined by measurement of the conductance, which shows a sharp discontinuity at the end-point. The method is useful with solutions which are very dilute, or strongly coloured, with which normal indicators are unsuitable.

OBS

"Conductometric analysis", strictly speaking, has a broader meaning than "conductometric titration".

CONT

La méthode de titrage conductimétrique est aujourd'hui une méthode courante dans beaucoup de laboratoires analytiques. Elle s'applique aux titrages acide-base, redox, de précipitation et de complexation dans des solvants aqueux et non aqueux. Une quantité connue de la solution d'un composé A est contenue dans une cellule de conductivité et titrée par une solution de B de titre connu, que l'on ajoute à l'aide d'une burette. La conductance G de la solution est mesurée après chaque addition [...]
