A 50.00 ml aliquot of a solution containing Ca2+ and Mg2+ was buffered at pH 10 and titrated with 0.0418 M EDTA. The endpoint volume was 44.36 ml. A second aliquot of the same mixture was made strongly basic by the addition of NaOH – this causes the Mg2+ to precipitate as Mg(OH)2. The solution was then titrated with the 0.0418 M EDTA and the endpoint volume was found to be 30.02 ml. Calculate the molar concentration of Mg.
