If you have an aqueous salt solution it conducts electricity because of all the ions in the solution. If you add a different aqueous salt solution to this it is possible that a precipitate will form, effectively removing some of the ions in solution so it should be possible to monitor changes in the electrical conductivity of a solution during a precipitation reaction to determine the equivalence point of the reaction. This is known as a precipitation conductometric titration (or as a conductometric precipitation titration) and AUS-e-TUTE has just added a new tutorial, game, test and exam to help our members understand this!
