Titration calculator

Solve acid-base titrations with the equivalence relation M₁V₁n₁ = M₂V₂n₂, which accounts for polyprotic acids and bases through their equivalents. Find an unknown analyte molarity from the titrant used, or the volume of titrant needed to reach the equivalence point.

Molality calculatorCompute molality — moles of solute per kilogram of solvent — the concentration unit that, unlike molarity, does not change with temperature. Enter moles directly or a mass with its molar mass, plus the solvent mass, and it returns the molality in mol/kg.Normality calculatorCompute the normality of a solution — gram-equivalents of solute per litre. Enter equivalents directly or a mass with its molar mass and n-factor, plus the volume, and it returns the normality (N) and the equivalent molarity (M = N ÷ n-factor).Osmotic pressure calculatorCompute osmotic pressure with the van't Hoff equation Π = i·M·R·T — the pressure that drives water across a semipermeable membrane. Enter molarity, temperature and the van't Hoff factor to get the pressure in atmospheres, kilopascals, bar and mmHg. Key to IV fluids, cells and reverse osmosis.Henderson-Hasselbalch calculatorWork with the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation pH = pKa + log₁₀([A⁻]/[HA]) for buffer solutions. Find the pH of a buffer, the base-to-acid ratio needed to hit a target pH, or the pKa from a measured pH — the everyday maths of preparing biological and chemical buffers.Beer-Lambert law calculatorSolve the Beer-Lambert law A = ε·c·l for any variable — absorbance, molar absorptivity, concentration or path length. Central to spectrophotometry, it links how much light a solution absorbs to how concentrated it is. Pick what to solve for, enter the rest, and read the answer.Ideal gas law calculatorCompute the pressure of a gas from moles, temperature and volume (PV = nRT).Molarity calculatorCompute the molar concentration of a solution from moles and volume.Boiling point calculator (altitude & pressure)Find the boiling point of water at any altitude or atmospheric pressure. Water boils below 100 °C as you climb because the air pushes down less — this tool converts altitude to pressure with the barometric formula, then to a boiling point via the Clausius-Clapeyron relation. Vital for high-altitude cooking and canning.

The Titration calculator turns Solve for, Titrant molarity (M), Titrant volume at equivalence (mL), Analyte volume (mL), Analyte molarity (M) — for volume mode, Titrant equivalents (n), Analyte equivalents (n) into Result, Unit, Moles of titrant equivalents, instantly and for free. For instance, with Solve for = Unknown analyte molarity, Titrant molarity (M) = 0.1, Titrant volume at equivalence (mL) = 24.8, Analyte volume (mL) = 25, Analyte molarity (M) — for volume mode = 0.1, Titrant equivalents (n) = 1 and Analyte equivalents (n) = 1 it returns Result = 0.099, Unit = M and Moles of titrant equivalents = 0.002.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Titration calculator actually compute?

It takes Solve for, Titrant molarity (M), Titrant volume at equivalence (mL), Analyte volume (mL), Analyte molarity (M) — for volume mode, Titrant equivalents (n) and Analyte equivalents (n) and derives Result, Unit and Moles of titrant equivalents from them. The calculation is live as you type, so the result updates on every change.

What information do I need to provide?

7 values: Solve for, Titrant molarity (M), Titrant volume at equivalence (mL), Analyte volume (mL), Analyte molarity (M) — for volume mode, Titrant equivalents (n) and Analyte equivalents (n). Nothing else is required — no account, no file upload.

Can you show a worked example?

With Solve for = Unknown analyte molarity, Titrant molarity (M) = 0.1, Titrant volume at equivalence (mL) = 24.8, Analyte volume (mL) = 25, Analyte molarity (M) — for volume mode = 0.1, Titrant equivalents (n) = 1 and Analyte equivalents (n) = 1, the calculator returns Result = 0.099, Unit = M and Moles of titrant equivalents = 0.002. Those figures come from running this exact tool, so you can reproduce them by entering the same values.

What happens if I enter larger values?

It moves a lot. Using Solve for = Titrant volume at equivalence, Titrant molarity (M) = 0.2, Titrant volume at equivalence (mL) = 49.6, Analyte volume (mL) = 50, Analyte molarity (M) — for volume mode = 0.2, Titrant equivalents (n) = 2 and Analyte equivalents (n) = 2 instead, Result goes from 0.099 to 50 — which is why it is worth testing a few scenarios rather than trusting a single figure.

Which “Solve for” option should I choose?

You can pick between « Unknown analyte molarity » and « Titrant volume at equivalence ». Each one changes what the calculator works out, so switch and compare — the default is « Unknown analyte molarity ».

What does it give for smaller values?

Scaled down to Solve for = Unknown analyte molarity, Titrant molarity (M) = 0.05, Titrant volume at equivalence (mL) = 12.4, Analyte volume (mL) = 12.5, Analyte molarity (M) — for volume mode = 0.05, Titrant equivalents (n) = 1 and Analyte equivalents (n) = 1, Result comes out at 0.05. The relationship is worth checking at both ends before you rely on a single result.

When would I actually use this?

Preparing a solution at a stated concentration, working out how much of a reagent a reaction needs, and converting between mass, moles and volume.

What is the most common mistake?

Confusing molarity with molality. One is per litre of solution and the other per kilogram of solvent; they diverge as concentration rises, and only one of them is temperature-independent.

What is the difference between the Titration calculator and the Molality calculator?

This one returns Result and Unit; the Molality calculator returns Molality and Moles of solute used. That is the whole difference — open the one whose figure you need.

Is there a tool for the next step?

Normality calculator is the closest one after this: Compute the normality of a solution — gram-equivalents of solute per litre. Enter equivalents directly or a mass with its molar mass and n-factor, plus the volume, and it returns the normality (N) and the equivalent molarity (M = N ÷ n-factor).
