    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

    Complexometric Determination of Water Hardness.            Abstract: Using complexometric method of calculating water hardness‚ an EDTA solution was made and calculated to be around .00209M. This EDTA solution was then used to titrate a water sample with unknown hardness. The sample used was sample #18. The hardness of the sample was calculated to be 180505 ppm. This is within normal levels for the Mesa area.           Introduction:  This experiment focuses on titration with EDTA. Titration

    Complexometric Determination of Water Hardness By Nick Williams CHM 152 Lab dates: Aug 28th 2013 Dr. Weide Abstract: When a polyatomic ligand with multiple lone pairs of electrons available for bonding to a central metal ion forms a complex with a metal ion‚ a process known as chelation takes place. Metal ion impurities can be found by using disodium salt of EDTA to determine the concentration of M2+ by complexometric or chelometric titration. Erichrome Black T makes it easy to see

    Complexometric Determination of Water Hardness Abstract: Create a standardized EDTA solution for use as a titration solution to determine the hardness of water from a single random sample. Introduction: Using a calibrated EDTA solution to determine water hardness from a random sample. Essentially the Na2EDTA solution reacts one to one with the mineral content of a sample of tap water and by use of a standardized solution a ppm estimation can be obtained for the hardness of water. Current knowledge in this

    Lab Report: Hard Water Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine whether a liquid is hard water or not. Background: Hard water is the water that has a high amount of mineral in it‚ usually Ca2+ and Mg+. These cations enter the source of water by leaching from minerals within a wet underground layer of water- bearing rock‚ or an aquifer. According to the WHO‚ hard water is not harmful to human’s health but it’s a serious problem in the water industry. Household plumbing and appliances

    central metal ion. In this experiment‚ the affinity of EDTA for metal ions will be applied to tap water that has a particularly high mineral content. Through chelometric (complexometric) titration‚ EDTA can be used to gauge the concentration of metal wastes found within hard water. Eriochrome Black T will be used to indicate when the EDTA has fully absorbed the metal impurities found in the hard water. H2In- + M2+ (aq) ↔ MIn- (aq) + 2H+ (aq) H2In- is the Eriochrome Black T in its normal form

    Water Quality and Contamination Melody McBride SCI-207 Dependence of man on the environment Robin Glenn September 28‚ 2014 Abstract The lab was conducted at the McBride residence. For this experiment vegetable oil‚ vinegar and liquid detergent was use to contaminate the water. Testing of how ground water is affected by different contaminants was the bases of the experiment. The results were interesting in that when vinegar is filtered through dirt it came out fairly clean‚ it also
