    Titration
    Please help me with this part of problem/

    Pb2+(aq) + EDTA2-(aq) -> PbEDTA(aq)
    A 10.00 mL sample of the water from the holding tank requires 35.47 mL of 8.193 x 10-4 M EDTA to reach the end point.
    (A) What will be the molar concentration of lead(II) ions if you added a 10% excess of the stoichiometric amount of potassium carbonate? (B) Is this enough potassium carbonate to “get the lead out” to meet the EPA limit? (E) Which principle is being applied to remove the lead(II) ions from solution?

    A



    Since the stoichiometry requires 1 mole of EDTA per mole of Pb(2+), that is also the number of moles of Pb. The concentration of Pb is







    The carbonate is 1.1 times the concentration of lead, so



    To figure out the rest of this question, you need the solubility product of PbCO3 and then you solve for Pb(2+) and compare it with the EPA's best guess as to what's permissible.

    B You need the answer in part A to solve this.
    E If it's carbonate, I guess it's "precipitation". Or something like that.

have to find the molarity of an Unknown acid, but I was wondering how. I used this equation Cr2O7+14H+ + 6S2O3 = 2Cr + 3S4O6 + 7h2O We had to find the molarity of sodium thiosulphate which was 0.1M and K2Cr2O7 which was 0.02M for part A Part B This was an idometric titration the volumes used...
