Potentiometry is a field of electroanalytical chemistry in which the potential of a solution is measured with no current flow; there are many different methods of doing this and structures of potentiometers in existence. It is used to determine the concentration of different analyte ions in solution. This can have many practical applications; potentiometry is used to determine the end-point of titrations, the amount of fluoride in drinking water, and the pH of solutions, among many other things.

It is used when it is not easy or impossible to detect the end point by ordinary visual methods i.e:

1. For highly colored or turbid solutions.

2. For very dilute solutions 10-3, 10-6 M.
