A sample of hydrated iron(II) tetraoxosulfate(VI), , is dissolved in dilute tetraoxosulfate(VI) acid and made up to in a volumetric flask. A portion of this solution requires of acidified potassium tetraoxomanganate(VII), , for complete titration. Given the relative atomic masses , , , and , what is the integer value of , the number of molecules of water of crystallization per formula unit?
Cevap: 7
Cevap
The integer value of x is 7.
By using the titration volume and concentration of acidified potassium tetraoxomanganate(VII), the amount of iron(II) ions in the sample is calculated. Knowing the total mole amount of anhydrous iron(II) tetraoxosulfate(VI) allows determination of the mass of the anhydrous salt component (3.80 g). Subtracting this from the initial hydrated sample mass (6.95 g) gives the mass of water of crystallization (3.15 g). Dividing the moles of water (0.175 mol) by the moles of anhydrous salt (0.025 mol) yields exactly 7 water molecules of crystallization per formula unit.
