Conductometry
Conductometry is a technique used to measure the electrical conductivity of a solution. This property indicates the concentration of ions present in the solution, as ions are responsible for conducting electricity. Conductometry is commonly used in various fields, including chemistry, environmental monitoring, and food quality control.
The process involves passing an electric current through the solution using electrodes. The resulting conductivity is measured and can provide valuable information about the solution's composition. This method is particularly useful for analyzing aqueous solutions and can help determine the purity of substances or the presence of contaminants.
