There are many different primary standards that could be used in a standardization titration.
1. What are the criteria of a primary standard?
2. What are three other primary standards besides citric acid?
3. Is citric acid a greener standard than these?
Please explain this to me, I don't understand it.
1. primary standard solution: A solution of accurately known concentration, prepared using standard substances in one of several ways. A primary standard is a substance of known high purity which may be dissolved in a known volume of solvent to give a primary standard solution.
Features of a primary standard include:
2) The three other primary standards besides citric acid are
3) Yes, citric acid is a greener standard than the above mentioned compounds.
