Potassium dichromate has several industrial applications. To determine the purity of the salt that will be used in different industrial processes, a sample mass equal to 2.660 g was dissolved and quantitatively transferred to a 500.00 mL flask. An aliquot of 25.00 mL of this solution was treated with excess KI and the released iodine was titrated with 0.1000 mol L-1 sodium thiosulfate, spending 27.00 mL. Calculate the purity of the analyzed salt. Data: K = 39.10   O = 16.00   Cr = 52.00   I = 126.9    S = 32.07

Question

Potassium dichromate has several industrial applications. To determine the purity of the salt that will be used in different industrial processes, a sample mass equal to 2.660 g was dissolved and quantitatively transferred to a 500.00 mL flask. An aliquot of 25.00 mL of this solution was treated with excess KI and the released iodine was titrated with 0.1000 mol L-1 sodium thiosulfate, spending 27.00 mL. Calculate the purity of the analyzed salt.

Data:
K = 39.10   O = 16.00   Cr = 52.00   I = 126.9    S = 32.07
