Question

A sample (5.6 g) containing iron is completely dissolved in cold dilute HCl to prepare a 250 mL of solution. Titration of 25.0 mL of this solution requires 12.5 mL of 0.03 M KMnO4 solution to reach the end point. Number of moles of Fe2+ present in 250 mL solution is x×102 (consider complete dissolution of FeCl2). The amount of iron present in the sample is y% by weight.
(Assume : KMnO4 reacts only with Fe2+ in the solution
Use : Molar mass of iron as 56 g mol1 )

The value of y is .

Solution

Mole of Fe+2=x×102=1.875×102
wt. of Fe+2=1.875×102×56
Hence percentage of Fe+2

=1.875×102×565.6×100%=18.75%
