2. Titration of Ca²+ and Mg²+ in a 50mL sample of hard water required 23.65mL of 0.01205M EDTA. A second 50mL aliquot was made strongly basic with NaOH to precipitate Mg2+ as Mg(OH)2. The supernatant liquid was titrated with 14.53mL of the EDTA solution. Calculate a. concentration in ppm of CaCO3 in the sample. b. concentration in ppm of MgCO3 in the sample.
