It discusses the importance of the equivalence and end points and describes various titration methods, such as acid-base, complexation, oxidation-reduction, and precipitation.
In titrimetry we add a reagent, called the titrant, to a solution that contains another reagent, called the titrand, and allow them to react.

Despite their difference in chemistry, all titrations share several common features. Before we consider individual titrimetric methods in greater detail, let???s take a moment to consider some of these similarities.
