There are 4 types of solvents used in non-aqueous titration.
1. Aprotic Solvents:-
A hydrogen atom is bound to oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen in this form of non-aqueous solvent. These are chemically inert and have a neutral charge. Two examples are chloroform and benzene.
2. Protogenic Solvents:-
These are acidic solvents that quickly donate protons. They are usually used to boost the alkalinity of weak acids and strengthen weak bases. Two examples are acetic and sulphuric acid.
3. Protophilic Solvents:-
These are basic solvents with a high proton acceptance tendency. They create solvated protons when they react with acids. Examples are amines, liquid and ammonia.
4. Amphiprotic Solvents:-
These are solvents with acidic and basic qualities, as well as protogenic and protophilic solvent properties. Alcohols and acetic acid are two examples.
