Explanation / Answer

I am showing calculations for the first trial for the unknown water sample:

Total corrected volume of EDTA used = 22.7 mL = 0.0227 L

Molarity of EDTA solution used = 0.003366 M

So, moles of EDTA used in the titration = Molarity * Volume in liters = 0.003366 * 0.0227 = 0.0000764

Since 1 mole EDTA chelates only 1 mole of Ca2+ ions, so moles of Ca2+ ions present = 0.0000764

Now, these many moles are present in the diluted water sample whose volume is 259 mL

So, molarity of diluted unknown sample = moles/volume in liters = 0.0000764/0.259 = 0.000295 M

Since 25 mL was diluted to 259 mL, so molarity of undiluted unknown sample = 0.000295*(259/25) = 0.00305 M
