Enter the volume of solution, concentration of titrant, and volume of titrant into the calculator to determine the molarity of the solution.

Titration Calculation Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the molarity of the solution from titration. 

Molarity of Solution = (Concentration of Titrant * Volume of Titrant) / Volume of Solution

Variables:

  • Molarity of Solution is the concentration of the solution (M)
  • Concentration of Titrant is the molarity of the titrant used in the titration (M)
  • Volume of Titrant is the volume of the titrant added during titration (mL)
  • Volume of Solution is the volume of the solution being titrated (mL)

To calculate the molarity of the solution, multiply the concentration of the titrant by the volume of the titrant and divide the result by the volume of the solution.

What is Titration Calculation?

Titration calculation refers to the process of determining the concentration of an unknown solution by using a solution of known concentration, known as the titrant. This process involves carefully adding the titrant to the solution until the reaction reaches completion, indicated by a color change or an endpoint. Accurate titration calculations are essential in various scientific fields, including chemistry, biology, and environmental science, for quantitative analysis and quality control.

How to Calculate Molarity Using Titration?

The following steps outline how to calculate the molarity of a solution using titration.

  1. First, determine the volume of the solution being titrated.
  2. Next, determine the concentration and volume of the titrant used.
  3. Use the formula from above: Molarity of Solution = (Concentration of Titrant * Volume of Titrant) / Volume of Solution.
  4. Finally, calculate the molarity of the solution by plugging in the values.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem:
