A 20 mL solution containing both Ca2+ and Mg2+ cations is diluted in to 100 mL. When 10 mL of this solution is taken and titrated with 0.05 M EDTA at pH = 10 in the presence of Erio – T indicator, the consumption is found as 12 mL. A new 10 mL was taken from the same solution and (NH4)2C2O4 is added on it and then formed the precipitate is filtered. The filtered solution is titrated with the same EDTA solution and the consumption is found as 3 mL. So find the Ca2+ and Mg2+ amounts in the main sample solution in terms of mg/L.
