the estimation of iron(II) and iron (III) in a mixture containing both.
devise a volumetric procedure(titration) to determine the percentage of the two elements in a mixture containg both

ur provided with 200 cm^3 of a solution containing between 1.1g and 1.3g of iron ions as a mixture of fe^2+ or fe^3+.
you may assume that each of the two ions of is present to at least 30% by mass.
and tell me the apparatuses that'll be needed, please?

and the balance is not available

thanks :)

it's either you titrate it with a reducing or oxidizing agent and then if you determine the amount of the titrant needed, you can determine how much of either Fe2+ or Fe3+ was present in the solution that reacted to your titrant.

i dont know it and i was supposed to quess it or make it up in a sense that it works out

perform a redox titration with potassium permanganate
