    CHEMISTRY EXPERIMENT-7 Date: 06/08/2024

    AIM:- To determine the strength of a given potassium permanganate solution in grams


    per litre by titrating it against standard ferrous ammonium sulfate (Mohr’s salt)
    solution.

    (I) Apparatus Required- Electronic balance, Burette, Burette stand ,Pipette ,Conical flask
    ,Funnel,Test tube

    (II) Chemicals Required– Mohr’s salt (ferrous ammonium sulfate) solution ,Potassium
    permanganate solution, Dilute sulfuric acid

    (III)Theory-

    (a) Molecular equation:


    2KMnO4 + 3H2SO4 → K2SO4 + 2MnSO4 + 3H2O + 5[O]

    [2FeSO4(NH4)2SO4.6H2O + H2SO4 + [O] → Fe2(SO4)3 + 2(NH4)2SO4 + 13H2O] x 5

    2KMnO4 + 10FeSO4(NH4)2SO4.6H2O+ 8H2SO4 → K2SO4+ 2MnSO4+ 5Fe2(SO4)3+ 10(NH4)2SO4+ 68H2O

    (b) Ionic equation:

    MnO4– + 8H+ + 5e– → Mn2+ + 4H2O] x 1


    [Fe2+ → Fe3+ + e–] x 5
    MnO4– + 8H+ + 5Fe2+ → Mn2+ + 5Fe3+ + 4H2O

    (c) Working Formula:
    A1M1V1 = A2M2V2

    Where A1 and A2 are the loss or gain of e-

    M1 and M2 are the molarities

    V1 and V2 are the volumes

    Strength = Molarity x Molar Mass

    (IV) INDICATOR USED:


    KMnO4 is a self-indicator

    (V) END POINT:


    Colourless to light pink

    (VI) OBSERVATION TABLE:


    S.No. Volume of Mohr’s Burette reading Concordant Volume (V1 ml)
    salt used (V2 ml)
    Initial Final Difference

    (VII) CALCULATIONS:
    (a). Determination of molarity of KMnO4 solution:

    A1M1V1 = A2M2V2
    For KMnO4 for Mohr’s salt

    A1 = 5 (as MnO4– + 8H+ + 5e– → Mn2+ + 4H2O, gain of 5electrons)


    V1 = Concordant value of KMnO4 obtained in the experiment.
    M1 =?

    –-
    A2 = 1(as Fe2+ → Fe3+ + e )
    V2 = 10ml
    M2 = 1/20M

    Now putting the values of A1, V1 ,A2 , M2 ,V2

    5*M1* V1 = 1 *1/20* 10
    M1=

    (you can calculate M1 by putting the value of a which you will get by
    experiment/titration)

    (a). Determination of strength of KMnO4 solution

    Strength = Molarity x Molar Mass

    Strength= M1 X 158

    Strength= g/liter

    RESULT:
    1. Molarity of the KMnO4 solution = M

    2. Strength of the KMnO4 solution = g/liter

    PRECAUTIONS:
    1. Always rinse the burette and pipette before use.

    2. Clean all the apparatus with water before the experiment.

    3. Always read the upper meniscus in the burette as KMnO4 is dark in colour.

    4. Use diluted sulfuric acid in the experiment.

    5. Detect the endpoint when the solution gives permanent light pink colour. Don’t
    keep adding the KMnO4 solution after it. Immediately note the reading of the
    burette.

    6. The strength of the KMnO4 solution should be taken up to three decimals.

    7. Place white tile below the conical flask so that detection of the endpoint will be
    easier.

    8. Continue the titration at least until three concordant readings are obtained.

    9. The burette should not be leaked during titration.

    10. Index finger should be used for pi-petting the solution.

    11. Do not blow through the pipette to expel the last drop of solution from it
    simply touch the innersurface of the titration flask with the nozzle of the pipette for
    this purpose.
