In its deprotonated form, Eriochrome Black T is blue. It turns red when it forms a complex with calcium, magnesium, or other metal ions.
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.[2]
gollark: It works on my server but not laptop? How does that make any sense?
gollark: Well, this is immensely weird.
gollark: I did. It shouldn't be doing this.
gollark: Maybe it's a really old version. The network uses -26 and -25 otherwise.
gollark: Thusly, what?
