    • The Acid–Base Titration of a Very Weak Acid: Boric Acid

      M. Celeste C. Azevedo and Ana M. V. Cavaleiro
      Journal of Chemical Education2012 89 (6), 767-770

      A laboratory experiment based on the titration of boric acid with strong base in the presence of d-mannitol is described. Boric acid is a very weak acid and direct titration with NaOH is not possible. An auxiliary reagent that contributes to the release ...
