QUESTIONS
- You are provided with:
- Solution A of Potassium manganate (VII).
- 05M solution B of oxalic acid.
- Solution C containing 4.9g of ammonium iron (II) Sulphate, (NH4)2 SO4.FeSO4.6H2O, in 250cm3 of water.
- You are required to:
- Determine the rate of reaction between oxalic acid and Potassium manganate (VII).
- Standardize the solution A.
PROCEDURE I:
Using a measuring cylinder, place 1 cm3 of solution A into each of the five (5) test-tubes in a rack. Clean the measuring cylinder and use it to place 19cm3 of solution B into a boiling tube. Prepare a water bath by placing about 200cm3 of water into a beaker and start to heat. Place a thermometer into solution B and place it in the warm water until it attains a temperature of 40oC. Remove the boiling tube from the water-bath and place it in the test-tube rack. Add the first portion of solution A immediately and at the same time start a stop watch. Record the time taken of solution A to be decolourised in table I below. Repeat the procedure at temperatures of 50oC,60oC,70oC and 80oC to complete the table.
