Iron is an element that is essential in the human diet. Some people need to take iron supplement tablets to ensure an adequate intake of iron. You will investigate the mass of iron in an iron supplement tablet by titrating a solution with potassium manganate(VII). FB 1 is an aqueous solution of iron supplement tablets made by dissolving 14 tablets in $$\(1.00 \mathrm{dm}^{3}\)$$ of solution. The iron in each tablet is iron(II) sulfate, $$\(\mathrm{FeSO}_{4} \bullet 7 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\)$$. FB 2 is $$\(0.0100 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{dm}^{-3}\)$$ acidified aqueous potassium manganate(VII), $$\(\mathrm{KMnO}_{4}\)$$. FB 3 is dilute sulfuric acid, $$\(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\)$$. From your accurate titration results, calculate a suitable mean value to use in your calculations. Show clearly how you obtain the mean value. $$\(25.0 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\)$$ of FB 1 required $$\(\mathrm{cm}^{3}\)$$ of FB 2.

Answer:



Knowledge points:

2.4.1.1 reacting masses (from formulae and equations) including percentage yield calculations
2.4.1.2 volumes of gases (e.g. in the burning of hydrocarbons)
2.4.1.3 volumes and concentrations of solutions
2.4.1.4 limiting reagent and excess reagent (When performing calculations, candidates’ answers should reflect the number of significant figures given or asked for in the question. When rounding up or down, candidates should ensure that significant figures are neither lost unnecessarily nor used beyond what is justified (see also Mathematical requirements section).) deduce stoichiometric relationships from calculations such as those in 2.4.1 (1)–(4)
