Answer #1

according to the conservation of mass and atoms in a reaction, moles of reaction has to be balanced out.

moles of EDTA = moles of Mg2+ + Ca2+

volume of EDTA concentration of EDTA = volume of ionic solution concentration of ionic solution

18.7mL 9.5mM = 256mL concentration of ionic solution

concentration of ionic solution = 0.694mM
