Complexometry
Volumetric method involves reaction of metal with ligand
to form complex
M+ Ligand
Electron acceptor Coordinate bond Electron donor
Ligand Buffer
Sample
Metal
Ligand
Ligand may be:
Mono dentate
Bi dentate
Tri dentate
Multi dentate
Sequestering Chelating agent that
agent form soluble chelates
EDTA
Ethylene Diamine Tetra Acetic acid di sodium salt
Na2H2y. 2H2O

Metallochromic Indicators
Form colored complex with metals
Each indicator has a color in the free state and another color
in combined ( metallized) state
ComplexOmetry Compleximetry
Titration against EDTA Titration against any
other complexating
EDTA = Complexon III = agent

1- Principle
Direct Complexometry
Ni2+ e.g. NiSO4
Directly titrated against EDTA in presence of NH3 buffer
(pH=10) using Murexide as indicator

During titration
Ni2+ Murexide
+ EDTA Ni2+
At End
point Murexide + EDTA Ni2+
Free form

1- Principle
Direct Complexometry
Cu2+ e.g. CuSO4.5H2O
Directly titrated against EDTA in presence of dil. NH3
using Murexide as indicator

[Cu(NH3)4]2+ Cu-Murexide
Blue + Yellow
EDTA reacts first with copper ammine
complex because it is the less stable than Cu-
Ind complex
2- Procedure
In Conical Flask
10 ml Sample
+ 2 ml dil NH3 drop wise
till the ppt formed dissolve to give Copper
ammine complex (Blue color)

DETERMINATION
OF
LEAD SAMPLE
22
1- Principle
Direct Complexometry
Pb2+ e.g. (CH3COO)2Pb
Directly titrated against EDTA in presence of Hexamine
(pH=5-6) using Xylenol orange as indicator
End point: violet red yellow
(metallized form) (free form)
pH =5-6 .. Why ?
For maximum stability of Pb/EDTA complex, to increase selectivity
Hexamine +
violet red yellow

2- Procedure
In Conical Flask
10 ml Sample
+ 2 ml Hexamine
+ 2 dps Xylenol Orange (violet red color)

1- Principle
zinc is determined by direct complexometric titration
against EDTA using EBT as indicator in presence of
ammonia buffer (pH=10)
End point: Violet Full Blue
(metallized form) (free form)

+ 2 ml NH3 buffer
+ few speaks of EBT (Violet)
