Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid titrations cation

EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) (H02CCH2)2NCH2CH2N-(CH2C02H)2, the most widely used reagent for complexometric titrations. It forms 1 1 complexes with virtually all cations with a charge of 2 or more, effective formation constant Equilibrium constant for formation of a complex under a particular stated set of conditions, such as pH, ionic strength, and concentration of auxiliary complexing species. Also called conditional formation constant. 

Essential water Water in a solid that exists in a fixed amount, either within the molecular structure (water of constitution) or within the crystalline structure (water of crystalli-atioii). Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid Probably the most versatile reagent for complex formation titrations forms chelates with most cations. See EDTA.
