Number of moles of potassium permanganate (n1) =
Volume of Mohr's salt (V1) = ml
Molarity of Mohr's salt (M1) = M
Volume of potassium permanganate (V2) = ml
Number of moles of Mohr's salt (n2) =
Molarity of potassium permanganate (M2) = ?M
CALCULATION
a) Molarity of KMnO4 solution:
ACCORDING TO MOLARITY EQUATION
Volume of KMnO4 (V2) x Molarity of KMnO4 (M2)/Volume of Mohr's salt (V1) x Molarity of Mohr's salt(M1) = no. of moles
of KMnO4 (n1)/no. of moles of Mohr’s salt(n2) i.e. V2 X M2/V1 X M1 = n1/n2
MOLARITY EQUATION
V2 X M2/V1 X M1 = n1/n2
M2 = V1 X M1 X n1/V2 X n2
Molarity of the given Potassium permanganate = M
b) Strength of KMnO4 = Molarity of KMnO4 (M2) x Molar mass of KMnO4
= g/l
RESULT :
a) Molarity of KMnO4 solution = M
b) Strength of KMnO4 = g/l
