“Titration is a common lab method in chemical analysis. It is the slow addition of one solution of a known concentration (called a titrant) to a
known volume of another solution of unknown concentration until the
reaction reaches neutralization, which is often indicated by a color
change." No heat source is involved. Given the information above, which
safety precaution should be observed when titrating NaOH into a beaker?
NaOH is a solution that is caustic (able to burn or corrode organic tissue).
Skin contact should be avoided.
A. Wear protective eyewear.
B. Wear heat-protective gloves.
C. Avoid open flames
D. Only work in lab groups of 3 or 4.
