A 24-hr urine specimen was diluted to 2.000 L. After the solution was buffered to pH 10, a 10.00-mL aliquot was titrated with 23.57 mL of 0.004590 M EDTA. The calcium in a second 10.00-mL aliquot was isolated as CaC2O4(s), redissolved in acid, and titrated with 10.53 mL of the EDTA solution. Assuming that 15 to 300 mg of magnesium and 50 to 400 mg of calcium per day are normal, did this specimen fall within these ranges?
