FA 1 FA 2 FA 3 is 0.0200 mol dm3 potassium manganate(VII), KMnO4 is 0.0470 mol dm3 transition metal salt, MSO4 is 1.00 mol dm3 sulfuric acid, H2SO4 (a) Method (i) 1. Fill the burette with FA 1. 2. Using a pipette, transfer 25.0 cm3 of FA 2 into the conical flask. 3. Using a measuring cylinder, transfer 25.0 cm3 of FA 3 to the same conical flask. 4. Carry out as many accurate titration s as necessary to obtain consistent results. Add FA 1 until the contents of the conical flask turns a permanent pale pink colour. 5. Record below, in a table form, all of your burette readings and the volume of FA 1 added in each accurate titration. Results [6] (ii) From your titrations, obtain a suitable volume of FA 1 to be used in your calculations. Show clearly how you obtained this volume. 25.0 cm3 of FA 2 required _______________ cm3 of FA 1 [1]
