Question

A sample contains Pb2+, Mg2+ and Zn2+. 0.4085 g of the sample is weighed and dissolved. Once dissolved it is with cyanide to form a complex and mask the zinc (Zn2++ 4 CN-→ Zn (CN)4 2-). The Pb2+ and Mg2+ in the solution are titrated with 42.22 mL of EDTA 0.02604 M. Then the Pb complex is treated with another organic ligand that masks Pb and releases EDTA, which is titrated with 19.35 mL of a Mg2+ 0.007657 M solution. For finalize formaldehyde is added to unmask the Zn2+(Zn (CN)4 2- + 4 HCHO + 4 H2O → Zn2+ + 4 HOCH2CN + 4 OH-). The liberated zinc is titrated with EDTA 0.02064 M consuming 28.63 mL. (Data: Pat Pb, 207.22; Pat Mg, 24.31; Pat Zn, 65.4). Find the percentage of the three metals in the sample.
