General Chemistry II
An analyte is a substance or chemical constituent that is being identified and quantified in a sample during an analysis. Understanding the nature and concentration of the analyte is essential in various chemical assessments, especially in titrations, where it is the substance whose concentration is determined by reacting it with a titrant. This relationship allows chemists to derive critical insights into the properties of the sample being studied.
