My Summary
Slide 4:
Q is 0.0200 mol/dm3 potassium manganate(VII).
5 moles of iron(II) sulfate react with 1 mole of potassium manganate(VII).
Using the titration results, calculate the concentration, in mol/dm3, of FeSO4.xH2O present in P.
No. of mol of KMnO4 used =
No. of mol of FeSO4 present =
Conc of FeSO4.xH2O =
Slide 5:
(d) P contains 27.0 g/dm3 FeSO4.xH2O.
Using your answer to (c), calculate the relative molecular mass of FeSO4.xH2O. Conc of FeSO4.xH2O = 0.0970 mol/dm3 = 27.0 g/dm3
Mass of 0.0970 mol of FeSO4.xH2O = 27.0g
Mass of 1 mol of FeSO4.xH2O = 27 0.0970 = 278.3 = 278 g
Mr(FeSO4.xH2O) = 278
Slide 6:
(e) The relative molecular masses, Mr of FeSO4 and H2O are 152 and 18, respectively.
Using your answer to (d), calculate the value of x in the formula FeSO4.xH2O. Mr (FeSO4. xH2O) = 278
152 + x(18) =278
x =
= 7 (correct to whole number)
