The noun is a standard nominalization of the verb 'titrate', referring to the process of titrating.

Etymology

Titration comes from the French word titre and the Latin titulus, the same root as English title, and titulus originally meant a 'label' or 'title'. So, a titration is the careful lab method used to find the 'label' of how strong or concentrated a solution is.
