Why is buffer solution used in EDTA method?

Buffer maintains the pH of the solution through out the reaction. To maintain high alkaline medium ammonia buffer is added to EDTA in analysis of hard water. It is necessary to keep the pH at about 10 for two reasons: (a) all reactions between metal ions and EDTA are pH dependent, and for divalent ions, solutions must be kept basic (and buffered) for the reaction to go to completion; (b) the eriochrome black T indicator requires a pH of 8 to 10 for the desired color change.


What is the need for an ammonical buffer solution in the determination of hardness of water by edta titration?

during the complexometric titration using edta it is very necessary to maintain the ph of the solution near about 10 so we use ammonium chloride buffer if we will not use this buffer dring the titration ph of sol. will ho lower side


Why you use pH 10 buffer in EDTA titrtion?

because EBT work best in that pH

How do you prepare 1 M EDTA solution?

You will be using the disodium salt of EDTA (M.W. = 372.24 g/mole). It has been dried for 1day at 80°C to drive off any superficial moisture. Transfer it in desiccator for an hour.Weigh carefully about 1.95 g of EDTA (record tothe nearest 0.1 mg). Quantitatively transfer this into a 500 mL volumetric flask then add 2-3 mLof pH 10 ammonia buffer. Fill the flask about halfway to the mark with deionized water andswirl to dissolve. This process can take up to 15 minutes. Once dissolved, dilute to the markand then cap and invert the flask at least 6 times to get a uniform solution. Keep the solutioncapped.This solution is about 0.01M but for an exact value you need Standardization of this solution with Calcium Carbonate standard solution.

How do you prepare 1mM EDTA from 0.1M EDTA?

0.1M is 1/10 molar whereas 1mM is 1 millimolar and thus 1/1000 molar. There is thus a 1:100 dilution. So 10:1000 would be the same. To a 1000ml volumetric flask, pipete 10mls of 0.1M EDTA solution. Make up to the mark with deionized water. Mix and shake and you will have 1000mls of 1mM EDTA solution.


Which is more stable EDTA calcium or magnesium?

Ca-EDTA is more stable.. its stability constant is above 10 wheras Mg's is below 9, as to why this is I dont know


Why do you carry out edta titration at ph 10?

Many metal ions (eg. Ca and Mg) only react completely when EDTA is in pure anionic form (EDTA)4- anion. Since it is a quadruple acid this can only be realized at pH value above 10 for Ca2+ ions, for Mg2+ even higher: >12

How do you calculate the concentration of EDTA in titration?

in order to titrate a sample of solution, lets take an example. If we have a solution of 1.569 mg of Coso4, which has a (155.0g/mol ratio) per mill. A question may ask us to find the volume of Edta needed of titrate an aliqout of this solution. So lets take a random number of 0.007840 M EDTA and be asked to titrate A 25.00ML Aliqout of this solution. How do we find the volume of EDTA needed.....? well first we use the numbers given, 1.569 mg CoSo4/ ml x (1g/1000mg)(1molcoso4/155.0g)(1molEDTA/1mol CoSo4) calculating this out should give 1.012 x 10 ^-5 mol of EDTA per ml. we then multuply the moles of EDTA which react with 1.569 ml of COso4 by 25.00 ml 1.012x10^-5 mol edta (25.00ml)= 2.531 x 10^-4 mol of edta. This is the amount of moles in the new solution. Now we need to find the amount of moles per liter of the specific concentration of EDTA. so we multiply 2.531x10^-4 mol edta x (1L/0.007840 mol) to give 0.03228 Liters of 32.28 ml .


How do you prepare 1mM edta from 0.1M edta-Na2 solution?

You dilute it 1:10, then you take 1 part of that solution and mix it with 9 parts of the diluent. That will make the 1:100 dilution you need, incl. prevention of pipette inaccuracy.


What concentration of EDTA should be used for anticoagulation?

Ok, it's 1.5 mg per mL of Blood, you can reach this concentration by disolving 0.6 mg of EDTA in 10 mL of still water, then you add 100 microLitters (0.1mL) of this 6% EDTA into a glass tube. The next thing you've to do is to dry the test tube so that you'll only have 6 mg of EDTA, enough to anticoagulate exactly 4 mL of fresh complete blood. The final concentration of EDTA in the blood should be into the range of 1.25 to 1.75 mg per mL. I found this in Dacie's Haematology. karlosgb@live.com.mx
