    Lab 7: Determination of Water Hardness Using a Titrator Name: Kyndal Petrie Lab Partners: None Date of Experiment: July 19‚ 2013 Location: My house Course Number: Che112 Abstract: This experiment was to determine the hardness of the local water supply. I determined that from the 1mg of EDTA used to turn the mixture blue‚ that the water from my tap is moderately soft. Experiment and Observation: In this experiment I developed a familiarity with the concept

    Practical 7: Determination of Hardness in Water | | | | | 10/3/2012 | | Aim: To determine the different types of hardness and alkalinity found in the water by titration methods. This is used to calculate the concentrations of calcium and magnesium found in the water. Principles: The hardness of water is determined to provide a measure of the quality of water for household and industrial use. Hard water is not a health hazard. Drinking hard water contributes a small amount of

    Introduction: In this lab a total of six titrations are to be performed. Three of them will be done using a known Ca2+ solution‚ (1.000 g CaCO3 /L solution) and three of them will be done using an unknown solution obtained from the stock room. The objective of this lab is to determine the hardness of water‚ using the data collected from each titration performed with the unknown sample. Since the hardness of water arises from the presence of metal ions‚ we can use disodium salt of EDTA and the

    Waterhardness” was analyzed in this experiment‚ through the determination of CaCO3 concentration. This was achieved by the titration of an unknown solution using a standardized 0.1M EDTA‚ and addition of Eriochrome Black T to the unknown‚ to indicate the endpoint of the titration. The average concentration of CaCO3 obtained was 1034 ppm‚ with a standard deviation of 2.4495. The results indicate that the unknown solution can be considered as hard water. Introduction The hardness of water

    experiment:11-20-13 Date submitted: 11-23-13 Determination of Water Hardness Using a Titrator Purpose: This purpose of this experiment was to determine the hardness of the local water supply. Be familiar with using a titrator. To tell wether your water is hard or soft. Hard water however does not create a threat‚ but is bad for your pipes causing them to crust. To measure water’s “softness” you are truly measuring the amount of CaCO3 in the water. Procedure: Assemble the titration and stockpot‚ use

    CHM152LL LAB MANUAL COMPLEXOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF WATER HARDNESS Complexometric Determination of Water Hardness Introduction Complex ions When a neutral molecule or anion (a Lewis base) donates electron pairs and attaches itself to a metal ion center (a Lewis acid)‚ the resulting cluster‚ or complex‚ of atoms becomes a single complex ion. When such complexes form‚ the electron donating groups (called ligands) form coordinate covalent bonds through empty orbitals on the metal ion. An example

    Complexometric Determination of Water Hardness Kayla Partridge Britni Gonzales 09/15/2014 Abstract Determining the water hardness of unknown sample #55 was determined by complexometric titration. With the use of disodium salt EDTA as the solution to chelate the metal impurities and the Eriochrome Black T indicator as the solution used to help visualize when the impurities were completely chelated‚ along with a few other solutions to help the reaction. Unknown water sample #55 experimental calculations

    that the unk B tap water can be considered as hard water. INTRODUCTION Hard water is due to metal ions (minerals) that are dissolved in the ground water. These minerals include Ca 2+‚ Mg2+‚ Fe3+‚ SO42-‚ HCO3-. When this water evaporates or boils‚ the difficult to dissolve metal salts remain as a scaly residue. Hard water inhibits the effectiveness of soap and detergents. Calcium ions typically make the most significant contribution to water hardness. This is why hardness is measured in terms

    Complexometric Determination of Water Hardness 9/12/2013 Abstract: Two sets of acid-base neutralization titrations were conducted for experimental analysis. The first set of titrations was to standardize a solution manufactured in the lab. An approximate solution of Na2EDTA of 0.004 M was titrated against a known solution of 1.000 g CaCO3/L to deter mine to exact molarity of the Na2EDTA. Ca2+ + Na2EDTA → CaEDTA + 2Na+ The second set of titrations was to use the now standardized Na2EDTA
