Standard solutions

Standard solutions are precise mixtures used in experiments, especially in chemistry, to ensure accurate measurements. They contain a known concentration of a specific substance, allowing scientists to compare results and derive meaningful data. By establishing a benchmark, these solutions help in testing and calibrating instruments or assessing the concentration of unknown samples. For example, if a lab needs to measure acidity, a standard solution with a known pH can provide a reference to determine how acidic another solution is. This standardization ensures consistency and reliability in scientific research and industrial processes.
