PROCEDURE:
1. Dilute the EDTA solution by dispensing 25.0 ml of the given EDTA from a burette into a 250
ml volumetric flask and make up to the mark with distilled water.
2. Rinse and fill the burette with the diluted EDTA solution.
3.
Dispense a 20 ml aliquot of the hard water sample into a 250 ml conical flask. Add 2 ml of
buffer solution (pH 10). Add 4 drops of the Eriochrome black T indicator solution.
4.
Repeat step (3) a further 3 times so that your have four conical flasks of the water solution
for the repeat titrations.
5.
Titrate the water sample with the EDTA solution until the colour changes from wine-red to
pure blue.
Repeat the titration until three (3) concordant results are obtained.
Express the water hardness in mol L-1 of (Ca²+ + Mg²+).
Assuming the water hardness is only due to the presence of Ca²+, express the water
hardness in terms of mg L-1 of CaCO3.
