G Using the complex based titration system: 50.00 mL 0.00250 M Ca2 titrated with 0.0050 M EDTA, buffered at pH 11.0 determine (i) first pCa first before initiating the titration process and then (ii) at equivalence when all the Ca2 is titrated to CaY2-. Please, use your text books and/or lecture notes to find potentially missing information about constants needed to solve the problem.

Explanation:

a).

conc of Ca²⁺ =0.0025 M

pCa = -log(0.0025) = 2.6

logK,= 10.65 So lc = 4.47 x 10.

Formation constant of Ca(EDTA)]-z= 4.47 x 10¹⁰ At pH = 11, the fraction of EDTA that exists Y⁻⁴ is   =0.81

So the Conditional Formation constant= =0.81x 4.47 x10¹⁰

=3.62x10¹⁰

b)

At Equivalence point:

Ca²⁺ forms 1:1 complex with EDTA At equivalence point,

Number of moles of Ca²⁺= Number of moles of EDTA Number of moles of Ca²⁺ = M×V = 0.00250 M × 50.00 mL = 0.125 mol

Number of moles of EDTA= 0.125 mol

Volume of EDTA required = moles/Molarity = 0.125 mol / 0.0050 M = 25.00 mL  

V e= 25.00 mL  

At equivalence point, all Ca²⁺ is converted to [CaY²⁻] complex. So the concentration of Ca²⁺ is determined by the dissociation of [CaY²⁻] complex.  

                       Ca²⁺      +      Y⁴          ⇄     CaY²⁻

Initial                 0                  0                      0.001667

change             +x                  +x                     -x

equilibrium        x                    x                    0.001667 - x

x = 2.15×10⁻⁷

[Ca+2] = 2.15x10⁻⁷ M  

pca = —log(2 15x101= 6.7

the density(ratio between mass and volume as m/v) decreases from top to bottom in periodic table group as the size increases and nuclear charge decreases. but in periods density increases from left to right as atom size decreases and nuclear charge increases.

um i think it might be a car?
