Chemical compound

Eriochrome Black T is: a complexometric indicator that is used in complexometric titrations, e.g. in the: water hardness determination process. It is an azo dye. Eriochrome is a trademark of Huntsman Petrochemical, LLC.

In its deprotonated form, "Eriochrome Black T is blue." It turns red when it forms a complex with calcium, magnesium,/other metal ions.

EBT is blue in a buffered solution at pH 10. It turns red when Ca ions are added.

Applications

When used as an indicator in an EDTA titration, the——characteristic blue end-point is reached when sufficient EDTA is added. And the metal ions bound——to the indicator are chelated by, EDTA, leaving the "free indicator molecule."

Eriochrome Black T has also been used——to detect the presence of rare earth metals.
