A burrette is incorporated in an infusion system in situations where fluid volume is to be strictly limited, the burrette is filled with the desired volume and fluid is infused. It is not possible to infuse more than is in the burrette. That way the anesthestist in the case of the operating room is closely monitoring the volume infused. Once infused it is either refilled or not.

Why it is preferred to take acid in burette during acid base titration?

The burette can be filled with either acid or base. The acid will go into the burette only if you want to titrate a base , i.e. you don't know the concentration of the base and want to find out. The solution of known concentration goes always into the burette (in order to be able to measure the volume taken to complete the reaction) and so if you wanted to find out the concentration of an acid you would put the base into the burette.


Why is it advisable to remove sodium hydroxide from the burette as soon as possible after titration?

Sodium hydroxide, particularly highly concentrated sodium hydroxide, can dissolve glass if left sitting long enough. Therefore, if you leave the sodium hydroxide in the burette after finishing your titration, you could increase the volume inside the burette from the glass being dissolved from the inside out. This would make the burette measure the titration volume inaccurately and would invalidate the results of future titrations done with this instrument.


Why is it necessary to rinse the burette with sodium hydroxide before you completely fill it up?

Before a burette is used, it needs to be cleaned. During the cleaning process, usually, water is introduced into the burette. Be the water clean or not, if the burette is then used without rinsing it with the solution that it is going to be filled with, the result of that analytical exercise will not be precise and accurate. The reason is that water residue in the burette would dillute the solution when it's filled in the burette which would make it impossible to determine the exact concentration of the solution moved by the burette. By rinsing and re-rinsing the burette several times with the solution it is going to be filled with, residue water from the cleaning process would be successfully removed from the burette as are other leftover substances from the cleaning process. This practice is quite important as basic analytical technique.


Why the burette is clamped vertically?

A burette can be a hollow glass (or plastic) tube open at the top, with a small tap at the bottom. There may also be a scale etched down the tube. The burette allows a certain amount of liquid past the tap. So, obviously, unless clamped vertically, the liquid would simply pour out of the glass tube.
