Question

PS. Further values required for the solvings are give in the various situations below. (ANSWER)

Situation: A community in a mountainous area of Bohol uses water collected from a nearby natural spring. A sample was submitted to a laboratory for the analysis of its total hardness.

Required: SHOW YOUR COMPLETE CALCULATIONS.

BASED ON THE IMAGE PROVIDED BELOW FOR THIS QUESTION:

  • Calculate the amount of titrant used in each trial to reach endpoint.
  • Report total hardness of the sample as mean ±sd.

a. 250.0 mL of 500.0 ppm of CaCO3 solution from a primary standard (assume solvent is distilled water only).

  • Answer : Mass of CaCO3 = 0.125 g

b, The EDTA solution was standardized by titrating it with a 25.0 mL aliquot of the CaCO3 solution. How much of the titrant was consumed.       

  • Answer: Volume of EDTA consumed =  12.405 g

c. Calculate the average titer (mg CaCO3/mL EDTA).

  • Mass of CaCO3 in 25 mL CaCO3 solution: 0.0125 g
  • Answer: 1.008 mg CaCO3/ mL EDTA
d. A 30.0 mL portion of the water sample was titrated with the standardized EDTA solution. Total
hardness was calculated for each of the three trials and summarized in the table below:
Trial
Total Hardness
1
1203.19
2
1210.81
3
1208.17
