An EDTA solution prepared from its disodium salt was standardized using 0.250 g primary standard CaCO3 (MW = 100.087) and consumed 28.50 mL of the solution. The standard solution was used to determine the hardness of a 2.0 L sample of mineral water, which required 35.57 mL EDTA solution. Express the analysis in terms of ppm CaCO3.

Sample Problem. Three aliquots of a sample solution containing Ca2+ were analyzed using the procedure given above. The pipet had been previously calibrated to deliver 9.9804 mL. The resulting CaC2O4·H2O precipitates were found to have an average, uncorrected mass of 0.19118 g. Calculate the calcium concentration in the original sample. (Note that CaC2O4·H2O contains 27.42961 %Ca. And as noted in the introduction, the density of CaC2O4·H2O is about 2.2 g/mL.) [Answer: 5.25637 g Ca/L.]

A standard CaCO3 solution is prepared by dissolving 0.4193 g in enough dilute HCl to effect solution and then diluted to 500 mL solution. A 25.00-mL aliquot requires 23.62 mL EDTA solution for titration. A 25.00-mL water sample determined for total hardness, requires 8.45 mL of the EDTA solution using Eriochrome Black T as indicator. Calculate the total hardness in the water sample expressed in ppm CaCO3.
