In an EDTA titration using Eriochrome Black T indicator, the pink color indicates the presence of free metal ions, such as calcium or magnesium, which form complexes with the indicator. As EDTA is added, it binds to these metal ions more strongly than the indicator does, causing the indicator to release the metal and change color. At the endpoint, when all the metal ions have reacted with EDTA, the indicator turns blue due to its transition to a form that is free of metal ions, indicating that the titration is complete.
