Question 27 NECO_MODEL_QUESTIONS_VOL1 • 2021 • CHEMISTRY • objective

A 250.0 mL sample of an aqueous Fe²⁺ solution is titrated with 0.100 M KMnO₄ in acidic medium. The balanced redox reaction is \(\mathrm{MnO_4^- + 5Fe^{2+} + 8H^+ \rightarrow Mn^{2+} + 5Fe^{3+} + 4H_2O}\). If 32.0 mL of the KMnO₄ solution are required to reach the endpoint, (a) calculate the concentration of Fe²⁺ in the original solution. (b) If a student mistakenly used the stoichiometric coefficient 4 (instead of the correct 5) for Fe²⁺, what concentration would they obtain, and (c) what is the percentage error of the mistaken value relative to the correct concentration?

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. Correct concentration = 0.064 M; mistaken concentration = 0.051 M; percentage error = 20 %
B. Correct concentration = 0.062 M; mistaken concentration = 0.050 M; percentage error = 19 %
C. Correct concentration = 0.070 M; mistaken concentration = 0.056 M; percentage error = 20 %
D. Correct concentration = 0.058 M; mistaken concentration = 0.046 M; percentage error = 21 %
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
Correct concentration = 0.064 M; mistaken concentration = 0.051 M; percentage error = 20 %
