Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Concept Introduction:

EDTA or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid is used for titration of majority of metals with help of formation of strong metal complexes in the ratio of 1:1. It is utilized to bind metals, most commonly used in industrial processes. It is also used for prevention of food oxidation and in environmental chemistry. It can be used either directly or indirectly for analysis of most of the elements present in periodic table. EDTA titrations can be performed in many ways. Some of these are mentioned below.

1. Direct titration

2. Back titration

3. Displacement titration

4. Masking

Explanation of Solution

Expression for Kf' is as follows:

  Kf'=(αY4)(Kf)        (1)

Here,

Kf' is conditional rate constant.

Kf is rate constant.

αY4 is fraction of free EDTA in form of Y4.

Substitute 7.41×1013 for Kf and 4.2×103 for αY4 in equation (1).

  Kf'=(4.2×103)(7.41×1013)=31.1×1010

At 0 mL of EDTA solution,

Expression to calculate pMn2+ is as follows:

  pMn2+=log[Mn2+]        (2)

Substitute 0.0200 M for [Mn2+] in equation (2).

  pMn2+=log(0.0200 M)=1.6981.70

When 0 mL of EDTA is added to Mn2+ solution, pMn2+ is 1.70.

At 20.0 mL of EDTA solution,

Expression to calculate total volume of solution is as follows:

  Total volume of solution=(Volume of Mn2++Volume of EDTA)        (3)

Substitute 25.0 mL for volume of Mn2+ and 20.0 mL for volume of EDTA in equation (3).

  Total volume of solution=(25.0+20.0) mL=45 mL

Since EDTA forms strong metal complexes in the ratio of 1:1, moles of EDTA will be equivalent to moles of metal reacted.

Expression to calculate excess concentration of Mn2+ is as follows:

  Excess [Mn2+]=(([Mn2+])(Volume of Mn2+)([EDTA])(Volume of EDTA)Total volume of solution)        (4)

Substitute 25.0 mL for volume of Mn2+, 0.0200 M for [Mn2+], 20.0 mL for volume of EDTA, 0.0100 M for [EDTA] and 45 mL for total volume of solution in equation (4).

  Excess [Mn2+]=((0.0200 M)(25.0 mL)(0.0100 M)(20.0 mL)45 mL)=0.00667 M

Substitute 0.00667 M for [Mn2+] in equation (2).

  pMn2+=log(0.00667 M)=2.18

At 40.0 mL of EDTA solution,

Substitute 25.0 mL for volume of Mn2+ and 40.0 mL for volume of EDTA in equation (3).

  Total volume of solution=(25.0+40.0) mL=65 mL

Substitute 25.0 mL for volume of Mn2+, 0.0200 M for [Mn2+], 40.0 mL for volume of EDTA, 0.0100 M for [EDTA] and 65 mL for total volume of solution in equation (4).

  Excess [Mn2+]=((0.0200 M)(25.0 mL)(0.0100 M)(40.0 mL)65 mL)=0.00154 M

Substitute 0.00154 M for [Mn2+] in equation (2).

  pMn2+=log(0.00154 M)=2.81

At 49.0 mL of EDTA solution,

Substitute 25.0 mL for volume of Mn2+ and 49.0 mL for volume of EDTA in equation (3).

  Total volume of solution=(25.0+49.0) mL=74 mL

Substitute 25.0 mL for volume of Mn2+, 0.0200 M for [Mn2+], 49.0 mL for volume of EDTA, 0.0100 M for [EDTA] and 74 mL for total volume of solution in equation (4).

  Excess [Mn2+]=((0.0200 M)(25.0 mL)(0.0100 M)(49.0 mL)74 mL)=0.000135 M

Substitute 0.000135 M for [Mn2+] in equation (2).

  pMn2+=log(0.000135 M)=3.87

At 49.9 mL of EDTA solution,

Substitute 25.0 mL for volume of Mn2+ and 49.9 mL for volume of EDTA in equation (3).

  Excess [Mn2+]=((0.0200 M)(25.0 mL)(0.0100 M)(49.9 mL)74.9 mL)=0.0000013 M

Substitute 0.0000013 M for [Mn2+] in equation (2).

Substitute 0.0200 M for molarity and 25.0 mL for volume of solution in equation (6) to calculate millimoles of Mn2+.

  Millimoles of Mn2+=(0.0200 M)(25.0 mL)=0.5 mmol
