These relationships enable further calculations that may lead to
determinations of the weights of substances that react with the
standard solution.
Verify that the proper amount of solute is used at all times.
This not only aid in the accuracy of the process, but also saves
time and ensures safety. As mentioned earlier, you must ensure
that correct calculations were used to determine both the weight
of solids and volume of liquids.
The following is a step-by-step description of the process of

standardization by titration.
We are assuming that a 0.1N
solution of an acid is to be prepared and standardized.
