2 9729/04/CJC JC2 Preliminary Examination 2018 1 Z is an oxidising agent. You are required to use a solution of iodine in potassium iodide to determine the mass of Z needed to liberate 1 mole of iodine from potassium iodide. FA3 is an aqueous solution of iodine, I2, in potassium iodide, KI. FA4 is a 0.100 mol dm–3 aqueous sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3.5H2O. FA5 is an aqueous solution containing 2.00 g dm–3 Z, an oxidising agent. You are to follow the following procedure and record your results as instructed. Titration 1 1 By using a pipette, transfer 25.0 cm 3 of FA3, an aqueous solution of iodine in potassium iodide, into a conical flask. 2 Titrate the iodine present with FA4, 0.100 mol dm–3 aqueous sodium thiosulfate, from a burette until the solution becomes colourless. 3 Repeat the titration as many times as you think necessary to obtain accurate results. 4 Record your results of titration in a suitable tabulated form below. Titration of iodine in FA3 with FA4 Rough Accurate Final burette reading /cm3 19.90 39.60 19.70 Initial burette reading /cm3 0.00 19.90 0.00 Volume of FA4 used /cm3 19.90 19.70 19.70 √ √ Summary 25.0 cm3 of FA3 required 19.70 cm3 of FA4 for titration. Show which results you used to obtain this value of the volume of FA4 by placing a tick ( √) under the readings used. [5] At least
