Question

2.480 g of KCIO3 are dissolved in conc. HCI and the solution was boiled. Chlorine gas evolved in the reactions was then passed through a solution of KI and liberated iodine was titrated with 100 ml of hypo. 12.3 ml of same hypo solutions required 24.6 ml of 0.5 iodine for complete neutralization. Calculate % purity of KCIO3 sample.

Solution

2KCIO3+12HCl2KCl+6H2O+6Cl2Cl2+2KI2KCl+I2
Also Meq. of I2 = Meq.of Hypo= 100x 1
Also mM of Cl2 =mM of I2=1002=50
Also mM of KCIO3 =2×mMofCl26=2×506=503
Therefore =w122.5×1000=503
w(KCIO3)=2.042
Percentage purityofKCIO3=2.0422.48×100=82.32 %.
