    Having A Bit Of Trouble With This Question

    Also the concentration of HCl is not accurately known when it is manufactured. This is becuse a number of factors such as temperature and pressure. This is why the solutions have to be titrated to get an accurate concentration of the solution. Jamesy

    titration of ammonia

    Commercially produced solutions of acids like hydrochloric, sulfuric and nitric are not made up to any certain standard. Thus the concentration of these solutions can vary. That is why oxalic acid is used as a standard solution because the *exact* concentration of the acid can be calculated...
