Study Notes
Hard Water Analysis
- EDTA is used to titrate the Ca$^{2+}$ and Mg$^{2+}$ ions in a water sample.
- Eriochrome Black-T is used as an indicator in the titration.
- The titration of Ca$^{2+}$ and Mg$^{2+}$ ions is ideally carried out at a pH of 10.
- Eriochrome Black-T forms a wine-red complex with Mg$^{2+}$ ions when added to hard water at pH 10.
