0.120 g of pyrite, (molar mass 120), is completely oxidised by acidified to and . The volume of 0.0200 M needed is:

  1. A mL
  2. B mL
  3. C mL
  4. D mL

Answer: D

In , Fe is +2 and each S is -1. Fe: +2 to +3 gives 1 electron; each S: -1 to +6 gives 7 electrons, so 14 for two S. n-factor = 15. meq = . Normality of permanganate = 0.100 N, so V = 15/0.100 = 150 mL.
