Calcium in powdered milk is determined by dry ashing a 1.46g sample and then titrating the calcium with EDTA solution, 12.1mL being required. The EDTA was standardized by titrating 10.4mL of a Zn solution prepared by dissolving 0.634g Zn metal in acid and diluting to 1L (10.83mL EDTA required for titration). What is the concentration (ppm) of calcium in the powdered milk?
