Experiment 2: Redox Volumetric analysis Purpose : to determine the ratio off the number of moles of hydroxyammonium ions to the

number of moles of iron (III) ions participating in the reaction : KA 1 is a solution containing 1.58 g of potassium manganite (VII) per KA 2 is a solution prepared by boiling 4.0 g of hydroxyammonium sulphate (NH3OH)2SO4 per with excess iron (II) ammonium sulphate and dilute sulphuric acid. KA 3 is 1.0 Introduction sulphuric acid

Materials

In the presence of hydrogen ions, the hydroxyammonium ion, NH3OH+ will reduce iron (III) to iron (II) while NH3OH+ ion itself will be oxidised to nitrogen dinitrogen oxide. Repeat the titration as many times as u think necessary to achieve accurate results
