in order to titrate a sample of solution, lets take an example. If we have a solution of 1.569 mg of Coso4, which has a (155.0g/mol ratio) per mill. A question may ask us to find the volume of Edta needed of titrate an aliqout of this solution. So lets take a random number of 0.007840 M EDTA and be asked to titrate A 25.00ML Aliqout of this solution. How do we find the volume of EDTA needed.....? well first we use the numbers given, 1.569 mg CoSo4/ ml x (1g/1000mg)(1molcoso4/155.0g)(1molEDTA/1mol CoSo4) calculating this out should give 1.012 x 10 ^-5 mol of EDTA per ml. we then multuply the moles of EDTA which react with 1.569 ml of COso4 by 25.00 ml

1.012x10^-5 mol edta (25.00ml)= 2.531 x 10^-4 mol of edta.

This is the amount of moles in the new solution. Now we need to find the amount of moles per liter of the specific concentration of EDTA. so we multiply 2.531x10^-4 mol edta x (1L/0.007840 mol) to give 0.03228 Liters of 32.28 ml .

What are different types of EDTA titration?

1. Direct Titration In direct titration, you simply add an indicator to the solution of the metal ion and titrate with EDTA. Before starting the titration,it is needed to check that the pH of the solution to obtain a good formation constant value and on the other hand indicator colour change as well. 2.Indiract titration EDTA can be used as titrant for anions. Anions can be precipitated with suitable metal ion. Filter and wash the ppt with proper solution. Then boil in excess EDTA to complex metal ion(ppt). Back titrate to determine how much metal ion you had. 3.Back Titration In a back titration an excess of EDTA is added to the metal ion solution, and the excess EDTA is titrated with a known concentration of a second metal ion. The second metal ion must form a weaker complex with EDTA than the analyte ion so the second metal does not displace the analyte ion from its complex with EDTA. 4.Displacement titration Here the analyte is treated with an excess of a second metal bound to EDTA. The analyte ion displaces the second metal from the EDTA complex, and then the second metal is titrated with EDTA.


What is the difference between titration and standardization?

we know the concentration of standardization solution .eg (oxalic acid , mgso4 much more )but wo donot know the concetration of titration solution eg (kmno4 ,EDTA )


What is the aim of a thermometric titration?

the aim of a thermometric titration is to determine the concentration of the titrand and also to calculate the enthalpy change of neutralization.
