A
titration performed in a calorimeter which produces a plot of heat change versus volume of
titrant. This is the preferred term for experiments in which the main goal is the measurement of thermodynamic parameters. Because such experiments may be performed in any of a variety of types of calorimeters with varying degrees of calorimetric accuracy, it is important that the reporting of such results include an assessment of accuracy and
precision. The term stands in contrast to the main emphasis in
enthalpimetric analysis.
