• used to determine Cl- in a
sample
• sample is titrated against a
solution of AgNO3

A

Argentometry

17

19
Q

For metal determination
using EDTA

A

Complexation Methods

20
Q

EDTA

A

Ethylenediamine Tetraacteate

21
Q

When a metal ion combines
with a molecule which can
donate electrons.

A

Complex

22
Q

Combining molecule contains
two or more groups that donate electrons.

A

Chelate

23
Q

• will react with metal ions to form a water soluble, stable complex or chelate
compound
• the 4 oxygen and 2 nitrogen •atoms of it make hexadentate molecule
• (disodium salt) - more preferred over the free acid because it is more water
soluble, nonhygroscopic and very stable

A

EDTA

24
Q

EDTA make _____ molecule

A

Hexadentate

presence of another metal
• Zn will not interfere with Ca
titrations at a pH of 13
