To measure the quantity ofMnCl2dissolved in an aqueous solution, it was completely converted toKMnO4using the reaction,
MnCl2+K2S2O8+H2OKMnO4+H2SO4+HCl(equation not balanced). Few drops of concentratedHClwere added to this solution and gently warmed. Further, oxalic acid225 mg) was added in portions till the colour of the permanganate ion disappeared. What is the quantity ofMnCl2(in mg) present in the initial solution? (Atomic weights ing mol-1: Mn=55, Cl=35.5)

Answer:
126
Solution:


C2O4--+MNO4-H+CO2
meq of C2O4--=meq of MNO4-
2×0.22590=a×5a =0.001 mole =1 milimole
Mass of MnCl2=1×55+71
=126 mg
