Question

A volume of 60.0 mL of aqueous potassium hydroxide (KOH) was titrated against a standard solution of sulfuric acid (H2SO4). What was the molarity of the KOH solution if 11.7 mL of 1.50 M H2SO4 was needed? The equation is

2KOH(aq)+H2SO4(aq)→K2SO4(aq)+2H2O(l)

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Hints

Part B

Redox titrations are used to determine the amounts of oxidizing and reducing agents in solution. For example, a solution of hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, can be titrated against a solution of potassium permanganate, KMnO4. The following equation represents the reaction:

2KMnO4(aq)+H2O2(aq)+3H2SO4(aq)→3O2(g)+2MnSO4(aq)+K2SO4(aq)+4H2O(l)

A certain amount of hydrogen peroxide was dissolved in 100. mL of water and then titrated with 1.68 M KMnO4. What mass of H2O2 was dissolved if the titration required 17.8 mL of the KMnO4 solution?

Express your answer with the appropriate units.
