What is the rationale of maintaining the analyte solution at high pH (~10) in the titration process with EDTA?     At this pH, EDTA is at its fully deprotonated form, Y-4.         At this pH, EDTA is partially deprotonated with 1 ionizable H+.      At this pH, EDTA is at its fully protonated form, H4Y.       At this pH, EDTA is partially deprotonated with 2 ionizable H+.
