Argentometric Titration by Precipitation of Silver Salts

Argentometric titrations are based on the use of silver cation as a precipitating agent. The objective here is to do a simple titration by precipitation and to use the titration curve to determine the solubility constant of AgI. The reaction considered is

AgI

to see the changes in the titration curve.
