Textbook Question
Standardized solutions of KBrO3 are frequently used in redox titrations. The necessary solution can be made by dissolving KBrO3 in water and then titrating it with an As(III) solution. What is the molar concentration of a KBrO3 solution if 28.55 mL of the solution is needed to titrate 1.550 g of As2O3? See Problem 4.128 for the balanced equation. (As2O3 dissolves in aqueous acid solution to yield H3AsO3: As2O3 + 3 H2OS 2 H3AsO3.)

Textbook Question
The metal content of iron in ores can be determined by a redox procedure in which the sample is first oxidized with Br2 to convert all the iron to Fe3+ and then titrated with Sn2+ to reduce the Fe3+ to Fe2+. The balanced equation is:
What is the mass percent Fe in a 0.1875 g sample of ore if 13.28 mL of a 0.1015 M Sn2+ solution is needed to titrate the Fe3+?

Textbook Question
Calcium levels in blood can be determined by adding oxa-late ion to precipitate calcium oxalate, CaC2O4, followed by dissolving the precipitate in aqueous acid and titrating the resulting oxalic acid (H2C2O4) with KMnO4:
How many milligrams of Ca2+ are present in 10.0 mL of blood if 21.08 mL of 0.000 988 M KMnO4 solution is needed for the titration?

Textbook Question
Assume that you have 1.00 g of a mixture of benzoic acid (Mol. wt. = 122) and gallic acid (Mol. wt. = 170)), both of which contain one acidic hydrogen that reacts with NaOH. On titrating the mixture with 0.500 M NaOH, 14.7 mL of base is needed to completely react with both acids. What mass in grams of each acid is present in the original mixture?

Textbook Question
A compound with the formula XOCl2 reacts with water, yielding HCl and another acid H2XO3, which has two acidic hydrogens that react with NaOH. When 0.350 g of XOCl2 was added to 50.0 mL of water and the resultant solution was titrated, 96.1 mL of 0.1225 M NaOH was required to react with all the acid. (a) Write a balanced equation for the reaction of XOCl2 with H2O.
