Can someone give me a table of Factors of KMnO4, FAS, etc. to be used in Redox Titration computations? (this is Quantitative Chemistry)

OpenStudy (aaronq):

factors? what do you mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for example: A sol'n of KMnO4 contains 2.608g of KMnO4 in 750ml. Calculate the normality. in getting the Normality of KMnO4 sol'n: N = (wt. of sample/milliequivalent weight)/volume of sol'n \[=\frac{ 2.608g }{ \frac{ 158.04g/mol }{ ? }\times1000 }\ \div750ml\] ***the factor there is the one with question mark...

OpenStudy (aaronq):

sorry i was looking stuff, i haven't used normality in a while and there was no real emphasis on it when we did it. So basically you wanna "normalize/standardize" a concentration so from what i gathered, N =( 2.608g/158.04g/mol )/ 0.75 L which is the same as molarity in this case, but it changes when when you're using it in a reaction, and so comparing between 2 concentrations.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in normality you're going to use equivalent wt.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you do titrations in the lab?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

by equivalent weight the mean the amount of mass that would equal the amount of moles when comparing one substance to another. so the mass of HCl that equals 1 N, will be equivalent to the mass oh H2SO4 that equals 0.5 N

OpenStudy (aaronq):

not currently, but yes, i have done quite a few

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not using moles since it's quantitative chemistry, i use normality.. it is advisable to use moles in qualitative chemistry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have a table of solutions used in redox titration with there valence?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

well you CAN you use moles in quantitative chemistry, i have. Normality just makes things easier in terms of weight. I don't have a table, what do you mean by valence?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

i think what you're looking for is into how many parts does per say KMnO4 dissociate, KMnO4 -> K+ + MnO4- FAS -> 2NH4+ + 2SO4- + Fe2+
