A line graph shows the electrometric titration of glycine, plotting pH on the x-axis against the volume of acid or base added on the y-axis. Red dots mark experimental data points, with the curve showing sharp pH changes near the isoelectric point at pH 6.1 and buffer regions below pH 3 and above pH 8. Explanatory text is included on the right.

    A titration curve is prepared by plotting the amount of absorption as a function of the volume of added reagent. The shape of the titration curve depends on the absorbances of the titrant, analyte, and reaction product; from the shape of the curve, it is possible…
