Calcium in powdered milk is determined by dry ashing a 1.50-g sample and then titrating the calcium with EDTA solution; 12.1 mL is required. The EDTA was standardized by titrating 10.0 mL of a zinc solution prepared by dissolving 0.632 g zinc metal in acid and diluting it to 1 L (10.8 mL EDTA required for titration). What is the concentration of calcium in the powdered milk in parts per million?
