Question

An equal volume of a reducing agent is titrated separately with 1M KMnO4 in acidic, neutral and alkaline medium. The volumes of KMnO4 required are 20 mL in acidic, 33.3 mL in neutral and 100 mL in alkaline medium. Find out the volume of 1 M K2Cr2O7 consumed if the same volume of the reducing agent is titrated in acidic medium.

Solution

The correct option is C V=16.7 mL
In acidic medium,
1mol KMnO45mole
1mol K2Cr2O76mole
Thus, 5molK2Cr2O76molKMnO4
Thus, 56mol K2Cr2O71molKMnO4
Thus, 20 mL KMnO4=56×20=16.67 mL K2Cr2O7.
