  • Title: Masking of manganese in relation to stepwise complexometric determination of calcium, magnesium and manganese.
    Author: Sinha BC, Dasgupta S.
    Journal: Talanta; 1978; 25(11-12):693-5. PubMed ID: 18962349.
    Abstract:
    A critical study has been made of the masking of manganese with potassium cyanide in alkaline medium for complexometric titration of calcium and magnesium. It has been found that there is incomplete oxidation to manganese(III) unless the solution is aged for a sufficient period or air is bubbled through the solution at 35 +/- 5 degrees for 10 min. The manganese(III) complex can be reduced with ascorbic acid for titration with EDTA. Procedures are given for stepwise titration of magnesium, manganese and calcium in silicate materials. Mixed indicators are used, to improve the end-points.
