Titration   delivery of a measured volume of a solution of known concentration into a solution containing a substance being analyzed  
🗑
volumetric analysis   a technique for determining the amount of a certain substance by doing a titration

🗑
weak base   a base that reacts with water to produce hydroxide ions to only a slight extent in aqueous solution  
🗑
weak electrolyte   a material that  
🗑
