Solution
The correct option is A Equivalence point To determine the concentration of acetic acid in vinegar A buret, which contains the titrant, is calibrated so the volume of solution that it delivers can be determined with high accuracy and precision.
Titrant is added to the analyte until the stoichiometric volume of titrant has been added. This is called the equivalence point, at which the volume of titrant delivered by the buret is read.
