Hardness of water is estimated by titration with

  • A.DMG
  • B.cupron
  • C.α-nitroso-β-napthol
  • D.\(Na_{2}\)EDTA
  • E.ethylenediamine

Answer: D

Hardness is estimated by titration with \(Na_{2}\)EDTA.

The disodium salt of EDTA forms stable 1:1 complexes with \(Ca^{2+}\) and \(Mg^{2+}\). Titrating a water sample with it (using an indicator such as Eriochrome Black T) measures the total concentration of these ions, which is the hardness.

DMG detects nickel, cupron copper, and \(\alpha\)-nitroso-\(\beta\)-naphthol cobalt; ethylenediamine is a bidentate ligand but is not the titrant for hardness.
