Determinação da concentração de ferro(II) usando KMnO₄

Titrations Advanced (University) 50 min ~$18,00

Objetivo

Determinar a concentração de uma solução de sulfato de ferro(II) titulando com permanganato de potássio padronizado, um reagente autoindicador.

Contexto

Potassium permanganate is a powerful oxidizing agent that reacts with Fe2+ in acidic solution. MnO4- (purple) is reduced to Mn2+ (nearly colorless), so permanganate acts as its own indicator. The endpoint occurs when a single drop of excess KMnO4 produces a permanent pink/purple color.

Avisos de segurança

  • KMnO₄ stains skin and clothing permanently
  • H₂SO₄ is corrosive
  • Wear safety goggles and gloves throughout
  • Wipe up KMnO₄ spills immediately

Materiais

  • Iron(II) sulfate solution (100 mL)
    Unknown concentration
  • Potassium permanganate (KMnO₄) (100 mL)
    0.02M standardized
  • Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) (50 mL)
    1M
  • Distilled water (200 mL)

Equipamentos

50 mL burette Burette stand and clamp 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask 25 mL pipette Pipette filler White tile

Procedimento

1

Rinse the burette with KMnO₄ solution, then fill to the 0 mL mark. Record the meniscus reading (read from the top of the meniscus since KMnO₄ is opaque).

5 min KMnO₄ stains — handle carefully
2

Pipette exactly 25.0 mL of iron(II) sulfate solution into the Erlenmeyer flask.

3 min
3

Add 10 mL of 1M sulfuric acid to the flask to ensure acidic conditions.

2 min Handle acid carefully
4

Slowly add KMnO₄ from the burette while swirling. Each drop will decolorize as Fe2+ reduces MnO4-.

10 min
5

As the endpoint approaches, add drop by drop until a faint permanent pink/purple color persists for 30 seconds.

5 min
6

Record the final burette reading and calculate the volume used.

2 min
7

Repeat at least twice for concordant results.

15 min
8

Calculate the Fe2+ concentration using the balanced equation: MnO4- + 5Fe2+ + 8H+ → Mn2+ + 5Fe3+ + 4H2O.

5 min

Resultados esperados

The solution should transition from colorless to a persistent faint pink/purple at the endpoint. The 1:5 molar ratio of KMnO₄ to Fe2+ should yield an accurate concentration.

Limpeza

Dilute waste solutions and dispose of KMnO₄ waste according to lab protocols. Rinse the burette thoroughly with water. Clean any stains with dilute acid or sodium sulfite.
