50 ml of standard and hard water containing 1mg of pure CaCO3 per ml consumed 10ml of EDTA solution. 50ml of given EDTA sample requires 10ml of same EDTA solution. Calculate the total hardness of water sample in ppm.

50 ml of standard and hard water containing 1mg of pure CaCO3 per ml consumed 10ml of EDTA solution. 50ml of given EDTA sample requires 10ml of same EDTA solution. Calculate the total hardness of water sample in ppm. Correct Answer 1000ppm

50ml of standard hard water requires 10ml of EDTA solution so 1ml of standard water requires 5ml of EDTA solution. So, 50ml of water sample requires 10ml of EDTA solution. So, 50ml of water sample requires 50mg of CaCO3. So, 1000ml of water sample requires 50*(1000/50)=1000 mg of CaCO3 that is 1000ppm.
