Answer:
Close to the calculated endpoint of a titration - Partially open
At the beginning of a titration - Completely open
Filling the buret with titrant - Completely closed
Conditioning the buret with the titrant - Completely closed
Step-by-step explanation:
'Titration' is depicted as the process under which the concentration of some substances in a solution is determined by adding measured amounts of some other substance until a rection is displayed to be complete.
As per the question, the stopcock would remain completely open when the process of titration starts. After the buret is successfully placed, the titrant is carefully put through the buret in the stopcock which is entirely closed. Thereafter, when the titrant and the buret are conditioned, the stopcock must remain closed for correct results. Then, when the process is near the estimated end-point and the solution begins to turn its color, the stopcock would be slightly open before the reading of the endpoint for adding the drops of titrant for final observation.
