A KMnO4 solution can be standardised by titration against As2O3(s).  A 0.1156 g sample of As2O3 requires 27.08 mL of the KMnO4 (aq) for its titration. What is the molarity of the KMnO4(aq) [As = 75]. 

  • Correct answer
    A
    0.0172 M
  • B
    1.0172 M
  • C
    0.172 M
  • D
    0.9172 M

Solution

Meq. of As2O3 = Meq of KMnO 4 As 2 3+ →2 As 5+ +4 e −

0.1156 198/4 ×1000 = M×5×27.08 Mn 7+ +5 e − → Mn 2+

∴ M = 0.0172

∴ MMnO4-  = 0.0172 M

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
