DISCUSSION:
Sampling
Standardization of permanganate solution
Reducing all ferric ions to ferrous ions
Special reagent addition for the occurrence of one proper reaction during titration.
Titration.
Titration method mostly gives more accurate results than the precipitation
method so this procedure can be used for more sensitive determinations.

Oxidation-reduction is very important for analytical chemistry especially
mineral determinations.
There are a lot of task to mistake in that procedure. It is possible we’ve done
some. Procedure must be carried out several times for mistakes.
In this experiment first step standardization of permanganate solution. Firstly ,
we took sodium oxalate solution , Na2C2O4 , and add H2SO4 solution. Then we titrated
with permanganate solution until pink coloration appear. We keep the solution
above 70oC throughout the titration. Because titration became very fast. But we
burned our hand. Then we made blank . we prepared 75 ml H2SO4 solution to 80oC
and titrate with permanganate .From the corrected volume of permanganate. Finally,
we calculated molarity.
Second step we took sample and add distillated water. Then solution was
boiled but do not boil least iron be last as volatile FeCl3. Then add stannous chloride
until the yellow color change into light green. After that we added a few drops excess.
Then add water and cooled. Then mercuric chloride and precipitation was observed.
If precipitation was observed white, we passed next step. But observed dark, grey or
turbid, we repeated again previous steps. At first trial was ruined because we
observed grey color and second trial was very badly because we added mercuric
chloride before we added distillated water. Therefore we observed black color. Third
trial was made this step successfully. We observed white color. This color is similar
milk color. Then this solution was diluted distillated water until 300 ml. After that we
added Zimmermann-Reinhardt reagent. Finally solution was titrated with
permanganate solution and calculate the Fe in the sample.
