What is the significance of the equation MAVAMBVB in titrati

What is the significance of the equation M_AV_A=M_BV_B in titrations? What does the teach us and what is the most effective way to use it?

Solution

In the equation MAVA = MBVB

MA and MB refers to the molarity of solution A and B respectively , VA and VB stands for the volume of the solutions A and B.

The titration procedure is carried out to determine the concentration of unknown solution , by using the volume and concentration of the known solution.

So when the three values are known , it can be put into the above mentioned equation , and the fourth one can be determined easily.
