5. An organic chemist needs to quantitatively oxidize an unsaturated compound into a diol. The reaction uses potassium permanganate, the formula for the unsaturated compound is C17H2604, the solution is acidic and the formula for the product is C17H24O6. If his/her sample weighed 1.506 grams and required 39.75 ml of a standardized KMnO4 solution, what was the molarity of the KMnO4 solution?

Another source of phosphorus in water is known as organic phosphorus which commonly finds its way into natural bodies of water from human and animal waste and food residues. If you wish to measure the phosphorus content due to organic matter in the water sample using the vanadomolybdophosphoric acid method, you must first "digest" the sample to convert the organic phosphorus to orthophosphate.
