Current method of choice for the determination of metal ions except
Group ____ metals
Complexation Methods; 1A
During titration, metal ion reacts with a suitable _______ to form a complex
ligand
The equivalence point is determined by an __________ or appropriate instrumental method
Indicator
Titrant of CT
Chelating Agent/Complexing Agent/complexone
Analyte of CT
Metals
Product of CT
Metal-Chelate (EDTA) complex
Na2EDTA (chelating agent/titrant) acts as
Lewis Base
What happens during complex formation?
A metal ion combines with a compound-donating electron
A chemical species containing a central metal ion bonded to one or more ligands
Complex
Complex is less stable than chelates. T or F?
True!
In a _______, ligands bind to the metal ion through a variety of coordination modes like monodentate, bidentate, pooydentate
Complex
A _______ is a type of complex where the ligands form a cyclic structure around the metal ion
Chelate
Chelate is more stable than complexes. T or F?
True!
______ ligands are specifically designed to bind to the metal ion through multiple coordination sites, forming a cyclic structure
Chelate
What is the most commonly used analytical reagent for Complexation Titrations?
Disodium EthyleneDiamineTetraAcetate (Na2EDTA)
NA2 EDTA stands for
Disodium EthyleneDiamineTetraAcetate
Octadentates (such as DTPA) give more stable complexes than hexadentates (EDTA). T or F?
True!
EDTA has the widest general application in the analysis because of its
powerful complexing action and commercial availability
Factors affecting the stability of complex
- Number of dentates
- Temperature
- pH
- Stability constant (kf) value
Some metal EDTAs are more stable at _____ temperatures
Higher
EDTA forms more stable complexes at _______ pH levels
Higher
EDTA has how many acidic protons that dissociate based on pH and what are those
