Best Answer

Radiometric titration is "regular" titration, but with the incorporation of a radioactive indicator to monitor the end-point. And that's right from the IUPAC Compendium of Chemical Terminology. If you need an example, use the link provided to a post on the radiometric titration of hexachloro-platinate (IV). It's a bit esoteric, but it will serve to exemplify the idea behind radiometric titration. It's pretty clear that when working with two precipitates (co-precipitation), the analyst would need a way to differentiate them. In the case cited, the application of radioactive cæsium-137 will permit the observer to more quickly and easily find a cutoff point at which to terminate the titration.
