By analogy to a hydrogen ion buffer, a metal ion buffer tends to maintain a particular metal

Question:

By analogy to a hydrogen ion buffer, a metal ion buffer tends to maintain a particular metal ion concentration in solution. A mixture of the acid HA and its conjugate base A- maintains [H+] defined by the equation Ka = [A-][H+]/[HA]. A mixture of CaY2- and Y4- serves as a Ca2- buffer governed by the equation 1/Kf = [EDTA][Ca2+]/[CaY2-]. How many grams of Na2EDTA ∙ 2H2O (FM 372.23) should be mixed with 1.95 g of Ca(NO3)2 ∙ 2H2O (FM 200.12) in a 500-mL volumetric flask to give a buffer with pCa2+ = 9.00 at pH 9.00?
