Question

Is the indicator generally added to the titrant or the analyte in a titration?

Answer 1

In a titration process, the unknown or the analyte with a known volume is placed in a flask and the titrant whose concentration is known is placed in the burette. The indicator in the titration process is generally added to the flask with the analyte. 

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is "the analyte".

Explanation:

Titration is a method of quantitative chemical analysis used to determine the unknown concentration of a reagent from a reagent with a known concentration.

A reagent called a "titrator" of known volume and concentration is used to react with an analyte solution of unknown concentration. The endpoint is the point at which the titration ends, and is determined by the use of an indicator, which is added to the analyte.

Have a nice day!
