The piece of equipment that is best suited to perform this experiment is the burette. Acid-base titrations are used to determine the concentration of a sample of acid or a base and are carried out using a burette. The solution whose concentration is known is called a standard solution. Therefore in the unknown sample is an acid then the standard solution in the burette needs to be a base since the aim is to see at what point the unknown sample is neutralized.
