    Titration

    Determination of Calcium and


    Magnesium in Water

    Description
    The determination of the Calcium and Magnesium next together in water is done by titration with the sodium
    salt of ethylenediaminetetraethanoic acid (EDTA) at pH 8 - 9, the detection is carried out with a Ca
    electrode. The result is calculated as mg/l Ca2+ respectively mg/l Mg2+.

    Instruments
    Titrator TL 7000 or higher
    Electrode Ca 1100 PLH
    Cable L1A
    Reference electrode B 2920+
    cable L1N
    Stirrer Magnetic stirrer TM 235 or similar
    Lab accessory Glass beaker 150 ml
    Magnetic stirrer bar 30 mm

    Reagents
    1 Na2EDTA 0.05 or 0.1 mol/l
    2 Acetylacetone
    3 Tris(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane (TRIS)
    4 Distilled Water
    5 Electrolyte solution L300
    All reagents should be of analytical grade or better.

    Titration procedure
    Reagents
    The titer determination of the EDTA solution is carried out as described in the application note "Titer
    determination of EDTA".

    TRIS / Acetylacetone Buffer solution


    Dissolve 20.4 g of TRIS in water, add 12 ml of Acetylacetone and make up to 1.0 liter with water.

    Cleaning of the electrode


    The electrodes are cleaned with distilled water. The Ca 1100 is stored clean and dry, for the storage of the
    reference electrode use electrolyte solution L300.

    Sample preparation
    100.00 ml of sample are placed in a 150 ml beaker, 15 ml TRIS / Acetylacetone buffer solution are added.
    Then it is titrated with Na2EDTA 0.05 or 0.1 mol / l to 2 equivalence points. The first equivalence point
    corresponds to the Ca2+ content, the second to the Mg2+ content of the sample. The consumption should be
    about 5 - 15 ml. For very hard water samples, the amount of sample may be reduced, for very soft water
    samples, a lower concentration EDTA solution may be needed.
