Can sodium chloride be used as a base in titration?

Sodium chloride (NaCl) cannot be used as a base in titration because it is a neutral salt that does not exhibit basic properties. In titrations, bases are typically substances that can accept protons (H⁺ ions) or donate hydroxide ions (OH⁻). Instead, NaCl is often used in titrations as a background electrolyte to maintain ionic strength but does not participate in the acid-base reaction itself.
