Setting up the titration vessel
The titration vessel is set up as shown below. During a titration, it is
important to ensure that the solution in contact with the electrode is
thoroughly mixed. This is achieved by
• efficient stirring. But it should not be too fast, otherwise the stirrer
vortex will suck in air bubbles and CO
2
or O
2
can disturb the titra-
tion.
• placing the buret tip according to the drawing below for maximum
distance between the adding of the titrant and the electrode.
